Therapeutic model


REWRITING YOUR NARRATIVE is about working alongside you throughout the therapeutic process to replace the past problem-filled narrative with a rewritten version of strength and resilience. Within the ideals of rewriting your narrative, narrative = your personalized story, which is exclusive to you, your life, and your values.  So, when you have decided to rewrite your story, do not think of it as erasing what makes you unique, as our past experiences help create who we are today.  Rather, think of rewriting your story as a revised edition, keeping everything that represents you, the challenges you have faced, and everything you want to overcome to make your life more meaningful.

At Rewriting Your Narrative,  the process of seeing people as separate from their problem is a guiding influence in the work I am able to do here. This guide is largely due to my experiences in working within narrative therapy, where you (not the therapist) is the expert over your own life. I believe this represents the strength of the human condition and the personal power to overcome obstacles. Yet, there may be times when you are looking for a specific type of therapeutic approach, often times this may be cognitive-behavioural therapy as proposed by your family doctor. Other times, you may want to pursue mindfulness-based therapy to “de-stress”, ground yourself, or want to develop a different, compassionate way to relate to thoughts. When you are pursuing treatment through benefits, there may be a need for brief solution focused therapy (1-6 treatment sessions) because of the limited nature of what can be reimbursed. If you are looking for a specific type of therapy approach, we can incorporate this within your personalized treatment plan.
