Abstract

Narrative Therapy helps individuals tell and retell their story; as they retell their story the individual is able to re-author, or reframe, their life story. This presentation will provide creative Narrative Therapy techniques to help youth who have experienced trauma construct new, strength-based stories and facilitate their personal agency.
