Narrative Therapy

Narrative therapy is a form of psychotherapy that seeks to help individuals challenge the stories they tell themselves about their lives and relationships. It is a unique approach that uses storytelling to explore the person’s life, allowing the person to take control of the narrative and create meaning in their life.

At the heart of narrative therapy is the idea that life is made up of stories, and that these stories are constantly being told, retold and revised. The stories we tell can shape our identity, our outlook, and our behaviours. Through narrative therapy, we can learn to recognise our own stories and how they influence our lives and explore alternative stories that might be more helpful. The goal of narrative therapy is to help the person to construct a more empowering and meaningful story of their life, with a focus on the person’s strengths and values.

Narrative therapy can be an effective approach for addressing a range of issues, such as depression, anxiety, trauma and relationship difficulties. Through narrative therapy, the individual can gain new perspective and understanding of their life and relationships, leading to improved mental health and wellbeing. Narrative therapy also helps people to manage difficult emotions in healthy ways. It provides a space to express and process feelings, free from judgement and criticism.

Narrative therapy can be used in a variety of settings, from one-to-one sessions with a therapist to group work and community-based activities.

If you are looking for a way to challenge the stories you tell yourself about your life and relationships, narrative therapy could be a beneficial approach. It can help you to confront issues in a safe and supportive environment, while also helping you to create a more empowering narrative for your life.
