Narrative practices have evolved in many ways over the decades in response to changing professional, social and cultural contexts. In this Collab Salon, we unveil a new Re-authoring Teaching series that builds on our deep respect for narrative therapy while creating spaces for an interplay with other cherished approaches. What might become possible when the somatic and the linguistic shape therapeutic endeavors? How can we put language and understanding around an integration that resonates both philosophically and practically?
Vikki & Michael offer an alternative approach to work with trauma, which focuses on the resistance of victims of violence and oppression. Drawing from a decolonizing and justice-doing stance, their activist analysis resists the neutral and medicalised language of ‘trauma’, and names the contexts of social injustice that create the conditions for suffering. Honouring the wisdom of the people we work alongside in their acts of resistance and responses to trauma brings forward their agency and wisdom - creating identities of knowledge, autonomy and strength, as opposed to victim/survivor identities, or other spoiled identities.We will address structuring safety as the foundation of the work, alternative understandings of the way trauma works, and the duty of the witness to work towards justice-doing, connection of private pain with public issues.
Photography and social media are such rich and powerful elements of our lives today. This Salon explored the creative ways in which these elements are currently being integrated into clinical work, enhancing the narratives of clients seeking our consultation.
Larry Zucker and Peggy Sax officially opened registration for this new online course! Larry described the course's six lessons that explore therapeutic conversations that are possible when Accountability emerges as practice distinct from Blame, and what we can do as therapists to nurture that distinction. They described how throughout the course construction, we've built in opportunities (every lesson) to interact with Larry and with each other. The course draws from a range of multi-media resources to captures some of Larry’s best teaching moments, to demonstrate the practices with clips from simulated interviews, and to explore transcripts, and provide exercises to try out ourselves.
Re-authoring Teaching is a mission-driven non-profit organization guided by the vision of bringing together a global learning community of narrative therapy practitioners, teachers, and enthusiasts. Our renovated website has made it possible to focus on building our Narrative Training, Resources and Conversation. Join Maggie, Charley & Peggy for reflections on "Narrative Camp" as we take stock of what's happening with Vermont Workshops, The Collab Salon, Online Courses and Higher Education, and with our Reauthoring Teaching Youtube Channel. We'll share some of our plans for the coming year, and hear your ideas too.
February 15, 2015 It was a thrill- a dream come true- to bring together people from around the world to exchange with Larry Zucker- and each other- about Larry's work with couples - Escaping blaming frames of reference and engaging a different approach to conversation. A big extra thank you to everyone who helped us officially launch The Collab Salon, and especially to Larry for your generosity and skill in bringing your ideas to [...]
We had a wonderful Collab session with SuEllen around her narrative approach to working with people who are living with serious and relentless problems or mental health challenges. Thank you to everyone who participated, and especially to SuEllen in offering us such a skillful, clear and energizing presentation.
Thank you Maggie for joining us for our April Collab session! Maggie presented on the ‘absent but implicit’ as a response to what has been problematic, and scaffolding this as an action. She also shared some thoughts about possible links between the ‘absent but implicit’ pathway and what is happening in the brain when we ask the questions that we do in using this pathway. Our plan was to show a couple of videos from Maggie's upcoming courses on Rich Story Development; however, we experienced a bit of techno/bandwidth difficulty. I will post the links to these videos below.
