Take a self-directed journey within.
Counseling and art are both tools used to transform the human experience, often painful and confusing, into something beautiful. In counseling, this process is invisible, via words and emotions in a private room. In art, this process is visible, via images created for a public conversation.
This business merges these methods, art and counseling, so you can dive deeper into a personal conversation with your oldest friend, yourself.
Our mission is to help people improve their relationship with themselves, improving their whole life, and help professionals improve so clients have a better experience.
We wanted to elevate the quality of emotional intelligence psycho-education by increasing the aesthetic experience and decreasing barriers of cost, class and access. Our products are designed to be useful and beautiful, trauma informed, and inexpensive resources reflecting a psychodynamic, interpersonal neurobiological and systems theory perspectives.
Finding each other was like alchemy, the dull lead of loss transformed into gold with heat, light and love.
Through our lived experience, professional talents in art and psychotherapy, along with a compelling desire to contribute higher quality self help, Love Sex Trust Productions ™ was born.
We share some of our experiences in The Collection and in Love Sex Trust: True Stories.
A psychotherapist, advocate and writer, Jennifer Jones has listened to client’s stories of how they suffer and what they truly want, behind closed doors, for decades. Alongside her artist-husband, often from their front porch, Jennifer has packaged this wisdom, creating Love Sex Trust Productions, a digital company selling a collection of self-directed emotional intelligence workbooks.
A life theme for Jennifer has been speaking truth to power. From getting punched in the eye by a bully in kindergarten to mediating with reactive couples, she is compelled to advocate for fair treatment between humans and within the self. She writes a lot about removing barriers so you can receive more love.
With a background in Communication and Cultural Studies and Counseling Education, licensed as a marriage and family therapist, she focuses on systems, developmental, somatic, trauma informed, health, mind-body, evolutionary and modern psychoanalytic psychology, among others.
She interweaves auto-biography as an adoptee, being estranged from family, divorced, a young single parent, creating a passionate remarriage and step-parenting.
Her straightforward writing about psychology is for anyone who aspires to stop unresolved intergenerational suffering. Her writing celebrates and supports those who courageously want to reveal their own true story.
An artist, illustrator and industrial designer, Chris Boissevain has been on a journey of exploration and expression since his teens. His claustrophobia of mid 1970’s California culture was such that he would have gone anywhere to leave “Hotel California.” Starting in Japan as an informal cultural exchange initiated a 10 year expat period, with time in India, France and Asia.
A lifelong fascination with art, design and culture is reflected in his wide range of work.
Abroad he worked as a street artist drawing portraits, as an extra on a famous Oscar winning film, taught English and sold original art.
He returned to California to start a studio, evolving into product design and finally an 11 year career as an industrial designer and R+D manager for Philips.
Building a cabin in the front yard for Jennifer to see clients and his partnership in Love Sex Trust Productions are his most heart fulfilling positions to date.
We are dedicated to decreasing intergenerational trauma. For help, see 1in6 and RAINN.
