Art Therapy in Couples Counseling
Relationships should provide a place where we are loved for being ourselves, and where we are secure in finding comfort and support. Yet we often have great difficulty identifying and expressing our feelings, needs, and desires to our loved ones.
Art therapy in couples therapy is a type of psychotherapy that focuses on understanding, changing, and improving the ways that a couple interacts with each other. It uses specific drawing activities that are helpful in identifying roles as well as providing an experiential way of working together. Using art experiential exercises and art psychotherapy, I work with couples to:
- Deepen their intimacy and sense of connection to each other
- Concretely see, using art, where each is stuck in unconscious expectations and patterns
- Examine and change family roles, behavioral patterns, and triangulations
Our first session will begin with a relationship evaluation drawing. In our second session we will discuss the areas that need work and make a plan for therapy. The number of sessions that follow will depend on the length of time a couple needs to achieve their relationship goals.
