A new, updated third edition of this guide to understanding narrative therapy. Narrative therapy is founded on the idea that we are built up from interacting stories that together comprise our sense of who we are. Therefore, the issues that we bring to therapy are not restricted to (or located) within ourselves alone, but are influenced and shaped by cultural discourses regarding identity and power. Narrative therapy offers a rich engagement in re-storying a client's narrative by reconsidering, re-appreciating, and re-authoring the client's preferred lives and relationships. This third edition of Narrative Therapy introduces psychologists, next generation practitioners, and veteran narrative therapists to a broad range of fundamental theoretical and practice ideas. It provides descriptions of historical and innovative narrative practices, numerous updated clinical examples and cases, and valuable sample narrative questions to provide a coherent balance between narrative therapy's theoretical complexities and the nuts-and-bolts of therapeutic practice. This book offers: Advice for therapists working with highly conflicted couple relationships; Valuable techniques for working with children, youth, and families; Updated practice approaches to grief, loss, trauma, and death; Help for understanding gender and the influence of queer-informed narrative therapy on identity formation; New and emerging clinical applications with transgender clients; and A focus on the application of narrative therapy as a global approach to healing.
