Individual Therapy For Adults And Seniors
Narrative Therapy
Narrative Therapy offers a unique and empowering approach to therapy that focuses on the stories we tell about ourselves and our lives. Developed by Michael White and David Epston, narrative therapy views individuals not as the problem, but as separate from their problems, enabling clients to explore and reshape their narratives in ways that promote healing and personal growth.
How Narrative Therapy Works:
In narrative therapy, the therapist collaborates with clients to explore the stories they have internalized about themselves, their relationships, and their experiences. These stories often shape our identities and influence how we perceive and interact with the world. Through a process of externalizing issues, clients gain a clearer perspective on the influence of dominant narratives and can begin to rewrite and reclaim their stories in more empowering ways.
What to Expect in Narrative Therapy:
Sessions are collaborative and focus on exploring and reframing narratives in a safe and non-judgmental environment. The therapist listens actively, asks thoughtful questions, and facilitates conversations that invite clients to reflect on their experiences from different perspectives.
