Have you lost your way? Perhaps your life was headed in one direction when an unexpected event changed the direction of your life and you feel alone and disoriented. Or perhaps you are in a relationship with someone that you love that has become mentally abusive and you have lost the person inside that you used to be. Or maybe you have changed over the years through life’s experiences and the career that you once loved no longer fits you and are looking for a new path but have no idea where to start. If any of these stories sound familiar, just know that while you may be lost, you are not alone.

Are you or your child struggling with past trauma? Unresolved trauma can manifest in many ways. Often people are depressed, anxious or constantly worried. You might find that even the most mundane tasks are overwhelming. In children, this can often look like frequent tantrums, defiance or poor performance. People often try a multitude of things before seeking therapy. But often exploring these traumas in a safe, non-judgmental space can be just the thing you or your child may need.

I see so many hurting individuals, whether it be a teenager who can't figure out how to deal with the drama, the friendships, the stresses of school, or the changes in their family system to the adult who has lost their will to live or their motivation to make changes in their life. Or maybe it is a whole family system that's hurting, struggling to figure out how to adapt to the changing ages of their kids and all the hurdles that includes, such as communication, discipline, integrating freedom & new rules.

I applaud those who take the first step to seek help for issues they are struggling with. Anxiety, depression and self-harm, to name a few, have become such common struggles in our society. Therapy can be a place to explore your life, take a look at your experiences and build skills to help improve your future. Sometimes, everyone needs help weeding through those difficult times when things can become confusing or overwhelming. My goal is to walk with clients through this process and toward their goals.

You spend hours decorating cupcakes for your daughter’s class, so the other parents think you’re a great mom. You endlessly obsess over projects at work to prove yourself a valuable employee. Being the perfect friend means saying yes to favors you don’t have time for. The perfect wife is always supportive, even when you don’t feel supported yourself. And yet still, that inner voice tells you you’re not doing enough. Somehow, you’re fooling everyone into thinking you have it together. Nobody knows that inside, you’re falling apart. It’s so isolating to live this lie, but you’re too scared to let anyone know you’re struggling.

Narrative Therapists

Is narrative therapy evidence-based?

Narrative therapy is not well-studied, and it may not be as effective in treating mental health conditions when compared with evidence-based treatments such as cognitive behavioral therapy. Some small studies do show that depressed and anxious individuals who were treated with narrative therapy reported improvement in anxiety and depression symptoms.

How long does narrative therapy last?

Narrative therapy is less structured when compared with psychoanalysis, for example. Narrative therapy is more open-ended and may not be limited to a set number of sessions. It is common for clients to be in therapy for a few months, and sometimes a year or longer. Patients see their therapist one to two times a week, though the exact schedule and timeline may vary depending on a person’s challenges and progress. Individuals can also practice the principles of narrative therapy after treatment has ended.

Does narrative therapy work?

Narrative therapy can help a person manage or reduce symptoms of conditions like depression or anxiety. This type of therapy encourages a person to reflect on the moments of their life when their particular problem was not at the forefront of their minds—perhaps life celebrations, achievements, and other successes. The individual is encouraged to rewrite their storyline as if their particular problem was not part of their life. This therapy may offer benefits that are hard to measure.

What are the possible limitations of narrative therapy?

Narrative therapy is person-centered or client-centered, and the health professional pays more attention to the subjective narratives that are constructed by the client, as opposed to other objective measures. The therapist privileges the individual’s perspective over all others. This open form may feel frustrating for individuals seeking a more structured approach; certainly, no one therapy type will work for every individual.
