Product Description : Narrative Means to Therapeutic Ends Use of letterwriting in family therapy White and Epston base their therapy on the assumption that people experience problems when the stories of their lives as they or others have invented them do not sufficiently represent their lived experience Therapy then becomes a process of storying or restorying the lives and experiences of these people In this way narrative comes to play a central role in therapy Both authors share delightful examples of a storied therapy that privileges a persons lived experience inviting a reflexive posture and encouraging a sense of authorship and reauthorship of ones experiences and relationships in the telling and retelling of ones story
