“storytelling” one of the most powerful tools of healing

Narrative therapy

Narrative therapy is a form of therapy that aims to separate the individual from the problem, allowing the individual to externalize their issues rather than internalize them.

In narrative therapy, the individual develops a sense of autonomy while telling their story of how they have survived through pain. In the narrative, the individual narrating their story makes sense of their past more compassionately as they look at themselves as “a parent to the child within”. Storytelling in this sense allows the reconciliation of the two parts of the Self- the adult and the child.

If you would like to learn more on how healing occurs, you need to develop an understanding to the factors that contributed to grievances in the past and that have left you feeling underestimated due to misconceptions about your true potential. You, also, need to address the struggles you experience within, and, therefore, the conflicted values shaped by cultural expectations and your personal need for growth and development, make a booking today:
