Narrative Therapy
therapeutic APPROACH
Transforming your story.
What is Narrative Therapy?
Rooted in the belief that these narratives shape our identity and influence our experiences, Narrative Therapy helps clients explore and reframe their personal stories in a way that aligns with their values and strengths.
By externalizing problems and viewing them as separate from the individual, clients can gain new perspectives, challenge limiting beliefs, and create a more empowering narrative that fosters resilience and growth.
Narrative Therapy is a collaborative and empowering approach to psychotherapy that focuses on the stories we tell about our lives.
How Can Narrative Therapy Help?
The therapy provides a space for clients to critically examine the dominant stories in their lives—often shaped by societal expectations, cultural norms, or past experiences—and to identify alternative stories that better reflect their true selves and aspirations.

What Should I Expect in Session?
The final phase focuses on identifying and developing alternative stories that better reflect your values, strengths, and aspirations. Your therapist will support you in re-authoring your narrative, empowering you to create a new story that fosters resilience, empowerment, and meaningful change.
1. Exploring the Narrative
2. Externalizing the Problem
In this phase, you and your therapist will work to separate the problem from your identity, viewing it as an external entity rather than an inherent part of you. This process helps you gain perspective and reduces the influence of the problem on your life.
In the initial phase, your therapist will invite you to share the stories that have shaped your life. This involves exploring key events, themes, and dominant narratives that influence your self-concept and behaviours.
