Narrative Therapy with Michael White

Michael White founded the Narrative Therapy approach to counseling while working with the Aboriginal peoples of Australia.  Given its emphasis on cultural sensitivity and social justice, as well as its creative approach to problem solving, Narrative Therapy has gained a reputation as being theoretically solid, effective, and perhaps most importantly fun.

Narrative Therapy is now being used the world over to treat everything from eating disorders, to trauma and bereavement, to marriage and family counseling.
