Integrating Narrative Therapy and EMDR Therapy
Designing Your Own Path to Mental Health
Rewriting Your Story, Healing the Past, and Lasting Transformation
What is Narrative Therapy?
Narrative Therapy is a strength based approach that helps reshape how you view your life experiences. The stories we tell ourselves shape our identity and wellbeing, but trauma and negative self perceptions can create feelings of shame and hopelessness. Narrative Therapy empowers you to separate from limiting beliefs and rewrite your story with resilience and self compassion.
Reframe Negative Life Experiences – Shift from feeling stuck in your story to seeing yourself as capable and resilient
Challenge Unhelpful Narratives – Identify limiting beliefs and replace them with empowering perspectives
Find Meaning in Your Experiences – Make sense of past events and their impact on your present
Develop a Stronger Sense of Self – Recognize that you are not defined by your trauma or struggles
Narrative Therapy is effective for individuals struggling with PTSD, depression, anxiety, self criticism, low self worth, and trauma related identity issues.
Why We Integrate EMDR & Narrative Therapy
Healing from trauma involves both reprocessing painful memories and reshaping how we view ourselves in relation to those experiences. By integrating Narrative Therapy and EMDR, we help individuals process trauma while reconstructing a healthier, more empowering personal story.
EMDR helps reprocess distressing memories, reducing their emotional intensity.
Narrative Therapy allows you to reshape how those memories define you.
EMDR releases trauma related emotions, while Narrative Therapy helps create a new, positive self narrative.
Together, they promote deep healing, allowing you to move forward with confidence and self compassion.
This combined approach is ideal for individuals struggling with negative self beliefs, trauma related shame, identity struggles, and emotional distress tied to past experiences.
