Conscious + Creative Couples

Are you seeking a fresh perspective on your relationship journey?

Do you crave a therapeutic experience that goes beyond the traditional therapy room? 

Perhaps you're looking for a non-judgmental space where you and your loved one can reconnect, reflect, and grow.

Relational Therapeutic Art helps couples rediscover one another in a unique new way.

Conscious + Creative Couples offers a creative space for partnerships in all seasons - whether you're married, dating, engaged, or long-time partners.

This goes beyond talk therapy by incorporating creative expression as a powerful tool for connection.

Through art-making, couples can access emotions that may be difficult to articulate, explore shared meaning, and engage in a new, often more intuitive form of communication.

Each session is guided by Ashley James, a compassionate professional that is a Certified Recreation Therapy, with certification in trauma-informed expressive arts, and training in the Gottman Method.

You’ll explore emotions, strengthen communication, and deepen your connection through the power of artistic expression. You and your partner will discover new ways to connect, heal, and thrive together.

This unique approach offers a safe space for you to rediscover one another - fostering deeper harmony, intimacy, and resilience within your relationship.

In these sessions, you can be expected to integrate principles from frameworks such as Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), the Gottman Method, and other therapeutic elements such as The 5 Love Languages, that will inform our arts-based approach to the C.A.R.E.S. Framework, as explained below.
