ART WITH GRAVITY III:
THE ASTRALS


_slow_crypto x DeFi_ClinPsy





In our world of instant communication and lightning progress, we need our moments of calm. The artist _slow_crypto explores this through natural dyeing and the conscious creation it inspires. His art aims to inspire a reflective moment and our partnership seeks to deepen that experience. 

Accompanying the first purchase of each artwork in Art with Gravity III: The Astrals, Dr Johnson offers a session of talking therapy.

Our hope is twofold:

1.  That your session with Dr Johnson will be an opportunity to reflect and take stock of your emotional wellbeing.

2.  That ownership of your own unique Astral artwork will inspire and cue you to return to a state of reflection and calm each time you view it.







SERVICES


What kind of talking suits you?  Dr Johnson offers the following options:


1. THE OPEN CONVERSATION

No planning, just relax.  Show up and let’s see what comes to mind. I’ll ask you some questions to get started and let’s see where the conversation takes us.  It’s all important. 

Freud was the father of free-association, and there’s a reason it’s still widely used in therapy today.  You might be surprised at what comes up.


2. THE FUTURE-FOCUSED

How to make the most out of your life: let’s ask some questions.  What’s really important to you?  How do you prioritise your time?  Are you caught up in the urgent-but-not-important?

In this conversation I’ll use ideas drawn from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to assess your values, goals and to help you re-focus your intention in a direction that’s important to you.


3. THE SOLUTION-FOCUSED

Let’s check in with your mind and body today.  How are you doing?  What do you need today?  Maybe there’s some stress, sadness, or worry around for you.

If so, in this conversation we’ll use some ideas from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to think together about some strategies and fixes.
