Narrative Therapy

Narrative therapy is a unique approach to working through trauma. When applicable I ask clients to write their trauma in story form either first or third person. This allows a separation between what the trauma is and allows us to dig deeper in the how the trauma is affecting aspects of ones life. Talking about a traumatic event is anxiety producing in itself, however, writing it out allows one to create some emotional distance and provide a specific space for the trauma to reside. This narrative if referenced throughout sessions as applicable and can be revised as therapy progresses.
