What Is Narrative Therapy?

Narrative Therapy is an approach to therapy that places the
experiences of the person coming to therapy in a central
position of importance. A counsellor may be an 'expert'
in therapy, but you are the expert in your life!
Narrative Therapy is a therapy approach that builds on
the idea that people live their lives according to stories they
construct about who they are, and what their lives are,
(and can be) like. These stories can act like a lens, filtering
out new and different stories which don't fit the main story.
People present for counselling when the lens gets stuck on a
problem story and the person becomes stuck too.

Narrative Therapy uses the stories people bring about
themselves and their lives, to re-shape new lenses, new
stories, new experiences and new futures.
