Narrative Therapy

What narrative therapy is

• You are not the problem

  Narrative therapy starts from the idea that we make sense of our lives through stories, and that the story we settle on shapes what we believe is possible. You are the person who has been living alongside the problem, not the problem itself.

• Separating you from it

  Instead of I am anxious, the problem becomes the anxiety: something outside you, with its own history and its own tactics. That small shift makes room for different questions. When is it weakest? Who does not believe what it says about you?

• Rebuilding the rest of the story

  From there you build back the parts the problem edited down: the times you held your ground, the values you kept, the people who saw you clearly. None of it is invented. It is evidence that had stopped getting counted.

What narrative therapy can help with

• Shame and a harsh view of yourself
• Trauma that redefined who you are
• Depression that has flattened your sense of self
• Relationship patterns you keep repeating
• Identity, faith and major life changes
• Grief and the stories it leaves behind
