I absolutely love these ideas! Have to try! Happy Valentine's Day!

1. Try something new together 2. Draw your partner and discuss (what stands out to you about them ) 3. Find lyrics that express your love 4. Blindfolded food tasted (put the food on the body) 5. Ask taboo questions 6. Recreate a special moment and discuss

"The thing about building intimacy is it requires vulnerability." That's deep and so true. Wish my ex-wife understood that. Thanks GQ for bringing me here.

I'm from the GQ video. Thank you for doing the things you do!

My girlfriend and I both would love for you to make a video explaining this concept more and what you personally suggest about each method covered also because you are a very smart therapist as well😊 we just found your channel and have only watched 3 videos so far! We both already have learned a lot but haven't used any of the information or activies you've suggested yet because we've been too busy binge watching your videos🤣 We cannot wait to become better and grow together thank you so much!

My husband and I love the resources we found through this channel. so glad we found you 🧡

This actually makes me excited to know that as you say these exercises, and I imagine doing them with my girlfriend, I just smile because doing anything with her so much fun

This was really good ! My husband & I are Marriage Coaches and we do a lot of workshops, & retreats. It’s refreshing to see others on the front line for marriage, being intentional on adding value.

Thank you! This video just saved us $1000 in counselling costs 😀😀😀

I would love for you to do a deep dive into the Gottman Method!

Fellow therapist here listening to your video before work. Excellent!

Im here from GQ 👋🏽❤

Sometimes it seems impossible to build intimacy when it was never there to being with. Coming from someone that was in a relationship where intimacy was always tucked away, and hidden, it just seemed easier to find something new.

I would love to see your deep-dive into this model! Your reviews of the different models has been so informative and helpful! Thanks!

I really love this. Excited to continue to follow you and learn! I love my partner but we both struggle with emotional intimacy and openness and i am looking forward to trying some of these suggestions! I wonder if you could do a video on ways to open up/how to approach those conversations

Thank you for creating your channel. I'm currently in graduate school, in my 3rd internship, and I'm interested in earning my associates license in MFT after graduation. Your videos are valuable to my journey. I wish I wouldve found you when I began the program. Keep sharing your journey and knowledge!!!!

Damn i am the problem, thank you for making these videos lol I really love him I can do it.

I was actually bummed when I got to the end of the video lol I was writing things down like "oh yes, keep these fire ideas comin"

Saw you on GQ video and instantly subscribed to your channel ... When is the book coming out

MMMAAAAAAAMMMMM, WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN ALL MY LIFE?!? This is really really good info! I've been to so many sites that just give you very surface level or recycled ideas but the info and suggestions you give are very insightful but also sound really fun! I'm going to try the "drawing" one with my husband tonight! 😊 Thank you so much for sharing your gifts with people who need it (like me, 😬 lol)! 💜 Please post more videos about intamacy ideas! (I'm also interested in hearing the "let's get the vacuum" story! Lol)

I'd love to wear what I wore on my first date with my husband but I dont think it will fit lol. Im loving your videos!! ♥️ Keep them coming

Sounds easy enough but I would have never thought of these. Thanks!

I love her face. Her videos too it's my new addiction 🤭

Just found you from the GQ video and I think your viewpoints are so vital and compassionate!

Started watching your channel, thank you ❤

I absolutely love this video!!

Number 6 made me smile

Hi, new subscriber here! I love the insights you have that help me communicate and approach my relationship in the best way I can. As a small note, I would love to see a video specifically on building physical intimacy for those of us who are naturally uncomfortable with it!

I love the drawing activity

Looking forward to doing more of these activities 😉

Just thinking about this makes me feel really angry and jealous. I have alot of resentment towards my partner. Just thinking about intimacy with him makes me really emotional.

Wow you deserve so many more subs and views!! Thank you SO much for your amazing videos 🙏 I’m in a eight year relationship and we’re high school sweethearts so we’ve been through A LOT! We definitely wish we had a more stable relationship earlier on when we were younger. Sometimes we slip back into toxic habits of the past but we are stable and happy majority of the time! Hopefully those bad habits will go away over the years and as we continue to establish better communication habits, especially after learning more from your videos! ♥️

Also from the GQ video. Thanks for your advice

Yes, please do an MFT on Gottman’s!

I love all of these ideas! I definitely will try with my partner. I am excited~

This is so good

Well done

I like going on a photo scavenger hunt. Each partner writes 5 things/places from your joint history and then go on a date and take pictures of those things/places and share memories about them.

Ok I'll try a few of these techniques.

Lovely

I love your videos! Thank you for sharing your knowledge. P.s. I love your last name, it sounds so elegant!

Thanks for the video

Love these ideas!! 🥰

I just love your content as a MFT Grad Student :)

These were awesome. Thank you.

I just thought of another one go to the thrift store and you both pick out something for each other to wear lol

Thanks for this dear binging on your videos can you do a skincare routine plsssssssss

Wow, very informative. I hope more couples see this video

Yes pls

Great video!!!! I love it!!!!

Hey Steph! I’ve been binge watching and loving your videos. What MFT theory do you primarily use when working with couples?

What if you both have childhood trauma and have a hard time with body language when in an argument ?

Hello! I was wondering if you’ve ever dealt with asexual clients/a relationship where one person is asexual. I am demisexual and I am honestly scared of dating due to either my partner pressuring me or leaving me. Can an asexual and allosexual person be together? How? I would like to know how you would give advice for navigating intimacy in that scenario because usually aces are just left in the dust just because we didn’t want to have sex as much as they did (I guess it also involved sexual compatibility?)

The narrative of this content is a transformative journey. A book with related ideas had a pivotal influence on me. "The Art of Meaningful Relationships in the 21st Century" by Leo Flint

Very great I love it will try it with my partner

Thank u soo much !! I been loving ur videos .. can you do one on the interview questions that are asked for grad school for mft thank you

Good advice enjoyed it

Those activities sound doable and fun.

This weekend I'm going to suggest the draw your partner activity!
