Objective: To write a paper that demonstrates research and conceptual skills relevant to the practice of narrative therapy

Task: Discuss how the narrative approach might enliven your present therapeutic practice with people who seek your assistance in either:

– your university placement or
– the setting of your present counselling, psychology, social work or other professional practice or
– another familiar therapeutic workplace

You will need to choose and focus on explicit features of narrative work such as externalising conversations, the notion of collaboration, the deconstruction of socio-political contexts of problem stories or the diversity of questions available in this way of counselling. In this exploration, ensure that you make visible a range of specific practice skills.
