Rating: Summary: Clear & Accessible Postmodern Therapy Review: This book makes a postmodern approach therapy clear and accessible. Using both theory and concrete examples, it lays out how therapists can help their clients re-vision and consciously edit the meanings they experience in their "scripts" of life. Doan and Parry present techniques which can be used with individuals as well as families or groups. Many of their techniques can be used effectively with other styles of therapy. The approach to therapy, presented in this book, empowers the client to consider her/his life story, to notice where others have scripted how they live and how they view their experiences. It provides tools to help clarify where these contstructs are helpful and where the client would like to create his/her new constructs to replace those which no longer serve. Doan & Parry also encourage clients to "give back," to share their experiences with other clients, helping to not only solidify progress, but to encourage those who have not yet made much progress in therapy.
Rating: Summary: Great Text ! Review: This is the book to begin an inquiry into narrative therapy. Highly recommended for its compassionate approach to postmodern constructionist ideas. A must have book for therapists.
