SUMMARY:🆕BRAND-NEW! Narrative Therapy as Transformational Practice: Re-Authoring the Soul 🆕
DESCRIPTION:BRAND-NEW!\nNarrative Therapy as Transformational Practice: Re-Authoring the Soul\nPresented by: Dreya Blume\, LCSW\nWhen: Wednesday\, August 26th\, 2026 | 9:00 AM – 4:30 PM\, Pacific Time\nWhere: Live on Zoom. You will receive your Zoom link/invitation the week of the workshop.\nContinuing Education Credit Hours: 6 CEs | $190.00\nNarrative therapy invites us to view problems as separate from people and identity as something shaped through story\, culture\, and relationship. This day-long continuing education training offers clinicians a deep dive into the philosophical foundations and clinical applications of narrative therapy\, including externalization\, mapping the influence of the problem\, re-authoring conversations\, and definitional ceremonies. Participants will explore how dominant cultural narratives around pathology\, productivity\, trauma\, and identity influence both clients and clinicians — and how narrative practices can gently disrupt those scripts. \nThis training is highly experiential. Clinicians will leave with immediately usable interventions\, sample language for sessions\, and a deeper awareness of how their own professional identities are shaped by story. The emphasis throughout the day is on practical skill-building\, relational witnessing\, and reclaiming therapeutic conversations as spaces of possibility\, agency\, and meaning-making. \nWorkshop Objectives:\nBy the end of this training\, participants will be able to: \n\nDescribe the philosophical foundations of narrative therapy\, including social constructionism\, externalization\, and the role of power in shaping identity narratives.\nDemonstrate the use of externalizing language to separate clients from problem-saturated stories in clinical conversations.\nApply re-authoring techniques to help clients identify unique outcomes and develop preferred identity narratives.\nFacilitate at least one structured experiential narrative intervention (e.g.\, definitional ceremony\, therapeutic letter writing\, or story-mapping exercise).\nAnalyze how cultural\, systemic\, and contextual factors influence dominant narratives impacting clients’ lives.\nIntegrate narrative practices into their existing clinical orientation while maintaining ethical and culturally responsive care.\n\nREGISTER HERE\n  \n  \n
