Narrative Therapy

Narrative therapy is an approach that allows individuals to reframe their life stories, helping them gain a sense of control over their narrative. By exploring how you see yourself and your experiences, we can identify unhelpful patterns and help you rewrite the story in a way that promotes healing.

This therapy is ideal for individuals dealing with trauma, low self-esteem or those seeking meaning in their lives. Mindleo Counselling Centre offers a safe and non-judgmental space to explore your personal story and reshape it to reflect the person you want to become.

Narrative therapy is beneficial for:

• Individuals who feel defined by their past experiences, particularly trauma or hardship.
• Those facing struggles with self-worth or identity.
• People who feel stuck in negative or limiting thought patterns.
• Individuals experiencing difficulty finding meaning or purpose in life.

Our therapists work with you to separate the problem from the person, enabling you to see your struggles as just part of your story, not your entire identity.

How We Can Help

We start by identifying the key themes in your life story. This involves understanding how you view yourself, your challenges and the meanings you have attached to those events.

In narrative therapy, we focus on separating the problem from the person. This means viewing issues like anxiety or depression not as part of who you are, but as external challenges that can be overcome.

You will be encouraged to create a new narrative where you are the hero, capable of overcoming difficulties. This involves reimagining your life with a focus on strengths, resources and the future.

Together, we will focus on adding more positive themes to your life story, helping you see the possibilities for growth, recovery and happiness.
