Narrative Therapy is a way of seeing your life as a story. It separates you from the problems you are facing, and seeks to create a full description, history, and understanding of the problem's effects on you. It involves creative and sometimes playful approaches to interacting with these problems. Narrative therapy concerns itself with your skills and abilities, the people who are important to you, and your hopes for the future. Narrative therapists ask questions that begin to expose the influences that have shaped your story as you have come to tell it. These questions eventually help to tell a new story that better reflects your authentic beliefs and preferences about your life.
