What is Narrative Therapy?

Narrative therapy was developed by Michael White and David Epston and is based on the idea that we understand our lives through stories. When the dominant narratives are problem-saturated, they can keep us stuck. The therapist helps you separate the problem from your person and discover alternative, more empowering narratives. The method is used for identity issues, trauma, grief, and life crises.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is 'externalisation' in narrative therapy?

Externalisation is a core technique where the problem is separated from the person — e.g., 'the anxiety is trying to take over' instead of 'I am anxious'. It gives you agency and a sense that you are not your problem.

Is narrative therapy suitable for all types of problems?

Narrative therapy is particularly well-suited for identity issues, trauma, grief, life crises, and low self-esteem. It can be combined with other methods and is used with children, adolescents, and adults in both individual and family therapy.

What happens in a narrative therapy session?

The therapist asks curious questions about your life stories and helps you find 'unique outcomes' — moments when the problem did not dominate. These alternative stories are strengthened and developed into new narratives.
