| NTIA will cover: • Externalising (i.e.: separating people from problems) • Deconstructing dominant discourse (i.e.: questioning ‘taken-for-granted truths’) • Responding to stories of loss, trauma and failure • Re-Membering practices (i.e.: re-engaging with significant people in clients’ lives) • Absent but implicit (i.e.: double-listening to the meaning in stories) You will be given the opportunity to engage with Narrative ideas by applying them to real life situations; be they your own or those of clients. There will be a theoretical component but, as the name suggests, the primary focus will be on the application of a Narrative approach in the counselling room. NTIA will help you to: • Approach “problem saturated” stories in helpful ways • Uncover hidden societal constructs that may be keeping people “stuck” • Respond to stories of loss, failure & trauma with a clear sense of direction • Thicken connections to figures from people’s history, be they living or passed • Draw out important parts of stories that have been left unspoken • Make visible people’s values & preferred ways of being in the world Throughout the entire workshop you will be invited to participate in conversations and to facilitate conversations using the ideas being explored. |
