Contemporary Narrative Therapy: Maps and Methods for Collaborative Clinical Practice - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

Drawing on contemporary thinking, practices, and real-world applications, this essential guide offers practical guidance and new frameworks of narrative therapy to help clinicians navigate cultural issues and common challenges.

Illustrating the nuanced and advanced aspects of narrative therapy combined with contemporary systemic, relational, and cultural thinking, this book equips narrative therapy clinicians with the resources they need to foster agency, empowerment, and decentered change in their clients’ lives, while re-enlivening narration. Grounded by Lev Vygotsky’s concept of the Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD) as a foundational and theoretical teaching tool, Dr Lindsey Hampson and Dr Chris Hoff provide structured maps and clear frameworks to progressively lead practitioners to develop their own creative and innovative approaches. The inclusion of scaffolded learning experiences and practical case examples demonstrates how practitioners can navigate this zone, ensuring a deeper understanding and application of contemporary narrative therapy principles in addressing current social and relational challenges. This book offers narrative techniques that address current issues such as social injustice, identity, the possibilities and impact of medicalization, trauma, neoliberalism, working with and within systems, and the impact of an accelerating culture on our lives. Complete with transcripts and photocopiable appendices, this book includes resources to support easy implementation and accessible pedagogy in therapy practice, teaching, and supervision.

This book is intended for mental health practitioners and counsellors of all levels such as marriage and family therapists, psychologists, systemic family practitioners, and clinical social workers.
