In continuation of qualitative epistemology applied to lived experience inquiry, the focus in this work is the relational process incounselling, as a coconstruction of making meaning together.The role of counsellor is shown to be as companion with the participant inquirer leading them into aspects of living that matter, and sharing the search for understanding. Participants are offered multimodal creative arts as ways of making their inquiries. These include haikus, visual arts and crafts, poetry, reflective responses and reflexivity, over extensive time. All participants explore significant life matters of experience, with no fixed regular times. The dialogues share intersubjective exchanges, only occasionally in physical presence. All contents as process are shown except for those required for maintaining privacy, in intermittent connectedness over a period of up to two years. All participants reflect understandings and the value of processes throughout. Participants were Raelean Hall, Jenni Harris, Jean Blyth, Nona Cameron, Bernadette Healy and James Edney.All are practitioners in creative arts counselling, qualified through MIECAT, at MA level or doctorate.
