Narrative therapy is a collaborative and empowering approach that allows you to rewrite the story of your life. By examining the narratives shaping your identity, we can uncover new perspectives, find meaning, and create a path forward that resonates with your values and aspirations.
What is Narrative Therapy?
As a narrative therapist, I believe you are the expert of your own life, and no single story defines you. Our work together will be a collaborative journey where we explore the impact of problems on your life, and uncover the skills, strengths, and values you already possess. I don't see people as the problem; rather, I see the problem as the problem, and together, we will seek to understand how it operates and how you can stand against it.
Our conversations will be informal, warm, and non-judgmental. I focus less on diagnostic labels and more on understanding the unique ways you experience challenges, so we can create new paths toward solutions that resonate with your values and aspirations. My approach emphasizes getting to know you outside of the problem, connecting with what you find meaningful, and building on your inherent capacities to bring about change.
I aim to open up possibilities that allow you to re-author your life story in a way that aligns with your hopes and dreams. Whether you're dealing with relationship struggles, trauma, anxiety, or significant life transitions, our goal will be to foster healing, resilience, and a clearer sense of direction.
My extensive experience and expertise in Narrative Therapy allow me to offer a comprehensive and personalized approach to your care.
It's easy to get stuck in a story where problems seem to be in control. Narrative therapy empowers you to rewrite that story and rediscover the strength and resilience within you.
Narrative therapy empowers you to take control of your life by rewriting your story. This strengths-based approach emphasizes collaboration and respect, allowing you to identify and externalize the problems you face. Together, we can work to clarify your preferred narratives and envision a future that aligns with your true self.
Why choose Narrative Therapy?
Post-structural ideas in mental health challenge rigid labels and fixed identities, suggesting that our understanding of ourselves is influenced by culture, relationships, and language. This perspective empowers individuals to see their identity as fluid, reframe their life narratives, and question harmful beliefs that may stem from external influences. By embracing flexibility and multiple perspectives, people are encouraged to deconstruct negative self-views and actively shape their mental health journey, finding new and meaningful ways to relate to themselves, their experiences, and their relationships.
