“Story Re-Visions” introduces a contemporary framework for narrative therapy, inviting clinicians to explore the ways clients construct meaning through their personal stories. By highlighting the impact of language and social context, this approach helps individuals rewrite limiting narratives and cultivate more liberating life scripts.
Drawing on principles of family therapy, the authors examine how individual identities are shaped by family relationships and community ties. Through in-depth discussion of postmodern themes, clinicians learn to facilitate conversations that unravel oppressive beliefs and promote empowering self-narration.
Rich case examples and illustrative dialogues demonstrate practical applications of narrative interventions. Readers will find step-by-step guidelines for conducting interviews, posing therapeutic questions, and applying inventive techniques that support clients in developing intentional, fulfilling lives.
Ideal for family therapists, counselors, psychologists, and graduate students, this volume bridges theory and practice. It offers a robust toolkit for professionals seeking to enhance therapeutic outcomes through narrative interventions.
