$230.00 inc. GST

Date: 18/11/2024

Time: 9.30am - 12.30pm AEDT

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. It relies on the individual's own skills and sense of purpose to guide them through challenging times by re-scripting their narratives and focusing on their core values and behaviours.

Narrative therapy seeks to be a respectful, non-blaming approach to counselling and community work which centres people as the experts in their own lives. It views problems as separate from people and assumes people have many skills, competencies, beliefs, values, commitments and abilities that will assist them to reduce the influence of problems in their lives.

Objectives

To learn the underlying theoretical framework and principles of NT as a therapeutic model and its applications.
To learn and apply learnt NT approaches and techniques to assist clients to make meaningful change.
To gain a better understanding of where and when NT approaches may be useful for clients and integrating parts of the model in practice.

Ideal for

Clinicians, social workers, community organisation workers, health professionals, youth workers, child and family workers and counsellors at any level of experience.
