First Course in the Narrative Therapy, Trauma & the Affective Turn Series!

Registration for this self-paced course is now open!

New Horizons in Narrative Therapy, Affect & the Body

Peggy Sax introduces the new self-paced online course, New Horizons in Narrative Therapy, Affect and the Body.

Course Description

The first course in our series builds on our deep respect for narrative therapy cofounders and mentors while envisioning new horizons in attending to affect and the body in our narrative work with people experiencing difficulties in their lives and relationships.  Please join us as we honor our narrative roots while attending to emotions and affect and possibilities for a more neurologically informed narrative therapy.

Through nine lessons, we draw from philosophy and practices associated with The Affective Turn, bringing together understandings of neurobiology, rich story development, trauma and its effects, memory theory, and emotional attunement. Reviewing where we are now, we rethink some of our narrative therapy guides as we explore what affect and embodiment in narrative therapy look like. We also explore the emergence of creative innovations that integrate such affective & somatic possibilities into narrative therapy practice as working with intense emotions, attending to physiology, mindfulness, narrative expressive arts therapies, and cross-pollinating with EMDR and somatic therapies. All of these developments guide us toward a more contemporary narrative therapy story,  featuring fresh voices across narrative generations, and that takes into account the changing landscape of the 21st century.

For an additional $40, registrants can earn 18 APA approved CE credits through Alliant International University.

We strongly recommend taking this course before the second course in the series, Em-BODY-ing Conversations: Integrating Narrative Practice with EMDR & Somatic-Oriented Therapies (with Lynne Rosen), which is also under construction. In addition, we recommend taking this course before the course Contemporary Narrative Therapy – also currently in development.

It takes a village to create a course! Our team of contributors includes Marie-Nathalie Beaudoin, Maggie Carey, Daniele Drake, David Epston, Jan Ewing, SuEllen Hamkins, Sarah Beth Hughes, Poh Lin Lee, Gerald Monk, Laure Maurin, David Pare, Ian Percy, Lynne Rosen, Peggy Sax,  Shoshana Simons, Akansha Vaswani-Bye, Jeff Zimmerman, and Navid Zamani.

Building Interaction

Discovering Padlets

While building this course, we’ve heard from many people that they wish to know others taking this course, sharing interests, and who might be available to take the course together as study buddies. So we asked ourselves, how can we feature collaborators’ contributions while also creating interactive spaces that include YOUR voices? We soon discovered educational technology has come a long way since the discussion forums at the turn of the 21st century!

Thank you to all who are already contributing your voices to this course!

Navid Zamani

Navid Zamani: “I’m an Iranian-American man who was born and raised in Southern California. I was raised in the Los Angeles and Orange County areas, until I moved to Davis, CA to continue my studies. After acquiring my BA in Psychology and minor in Music from UC Davis, I moved to San Diego to continue my studies at San Diego State University in Marriage and Family Therapy. I have resided in San Diego since 2010 and have fallen in love with the cultures, geography, food and music.

There are threads in my life that have been constant, and initiatives that have developed due to opportunities at the time and/or my location. Music has always been a big part of my life, and I continue to enjoy playing the piano/keys and the drum kit. I am an avid surfer, and enjoy outdoor activities with my wife, such as camping, hiking and biking around San Diego. Reading and writing have always been a pleasure of mine, and academia became a natural fit in this way. Gardening is also one of my obsessions and I also really love my dog. All of these hobbies are situated within a framework of experiences that come along with identifying as a heterosexual male, an Iranian-American and the experiences of biculturalism that accompany that, my ability to speak Farsi and English, my education, and the values I hold.

I grew up observing the charitableness of my family, and connected with the sense of urgency and gratitude that they experienced from helping others. I watched my mom always donate her time and money to the underprivileged and underserved. I watched my aunts (who are educators in Iran) advocate and stand up for students who often didn’t have a voice. I am continuously grounded by the love and compassion my wife models in her daily life. I truly believe that my community’s health impacts my health, and I am dedicated in supporting those in need.”

Jeffrey Zimmerman

Jeffrey Zimmerman PhD (Denver, Colorado) was one of the original North American group of narrative therapists, hosting Michael White both as a workshop presenter at the agency he co-founded (Bay Area Family Therapy Training Associates) and in his home. He later introduced the idea of combining neurobiology and narrative therapy, and trained a number of the current trainers of both narrative therapy and “neuro-narrative” therapy. He has written and taught extensively on these subjects. Jeff is an avid fan of live music, movies, and enjoys a really good meal.

Lesson Descriptions

Lesson One: Setting the Stage

What do we mean by the Affective Turn, and how does this shift in thinking interface with narrative therapy’s approach to rich story development and trauma and its consequences?   The first lesson introduces the course and our contributors and sets the stage to create space for emerging approaches while honoring our most cherished narrative ideas, practices, and ethics. We briefly describe what we mean by collaborative, emotionally-attuned therapeutic relationships, our commitment to a social-justice-informed, affectively-attuned therapy, and our vision of the evolution of narrative therapy to incorporate the affective turn and integration with somatic approaches. Here, Lynne, Maggie, and SuEllen grapple with finding philosophical congruence, staying open to new ideas and practices while staying close to their narrative philosophical grounding, ways of working, and the story metaphor.

This lesson focuses on the works of  Michael White, Maggie Carey, Lynne Rosen, SuEllen Hamkins, Gerald Monk, Navid Zamini, and Jeff Zimmerman

Lesson Two: Narrative Therapy & The Affective Turn

The second lesson focuses in more detail on the contributions of the affective turn to narrative approaches, and clinical applications..   This short video clip is an excerpt from our conversation with  Navid Zamani about his commitment to cultural humility, narrative ethics and relational rhythm

 This lesson focuses on the works of Navid Zamani, Gerald Monk, and others.

Lesson Three: Building on the Legacy of Michael White

While honoring the partnership between David Epston and Michael White – and David’s immense contributions- this lesson builds more specifically on Michael’s legacy. Beginning with rare footage of Michael in dialogue with Dr. Salvador Minuchin, we inquire into Michael’s relational affective practices unnamed in his Maps of Narrative Practice. We review Michael’s approach to trauma and its consequences and includes a dynamic podcast of Allan Wade’s Response-Based Practice exemplifying the evolution of this work. The lesson ends with several of us reflecting on Michael’s legacy and a self-reflective collaborative exercise.

This lesson focuses on the works of  Michael White, Maggie Carey, Lev Vygotsky, Jerome Bruner, William James & Allan Wade.

Lesson Four: Memory Theory, Neuro-plasticity and Trauma

In this fourth lesson, Maggie Carey reviews the relevance of neural plasticity and memory theory to rich story development and experiences of trauma. We review  several gleanings from neurobiology, and the role that narrative therapy can play   We end the lesson with a conversation about engaging with Neuroscience with Critical Intention. Here, Maggie briefly introduces the interplay between memory theory, trauma and rich story development.

 This lesson focuses on the works of Maggie Carey, Michael White, Jeff Zimmerman, Marie-Natalie Beaudoin, and others.

Lesson Five: Attending to Emotions & Affect in Narrative Therapy

What is the untold story about emotions and affect in narrative therapy? This lesson focuses on emotional and relational attunement and the landscape of emotions. In this video clip, SuEllen Hamkins briefly describes what she means by emotional attunement in narrative therapy.

 This lesson focuses on the works of  SuEllen Hamkins, Marie Nathalie Beaudoin and Jeff Zimmerman

Lesson Six: Possibilities for a More Neurologically Informed Narrative Therapy

In this lesson, Jeff Zimmerman first responds to the question, Why are emotions important? He draws on the work of Daniel Siegel to enrich narrative therapy practice and our understanding of relationships and emotions with insights into interpersonal neurobiology. If discourse is only half the story, what other ideas might be useful in our work? Jeff further explores how he conceptualizes four areas for possible influence on Narrative Therapy toward a more neurologically informed narrative therapy: Hard-wired for Emotions,  Minds and Bodies,  Right brain to right brain communication, and non-conscious experience. Each category includes a preview of illustrations in lesson 7.

 This lesson focuses on  Jeff Zimmerman’s conceptualization, with links to works by a range of colleagues in the next lesson.

Lesson Seven: Integrating Affective & Somatic Approaches with Narrative Therapy

We focus on illustrations of Narrative Therapy & the Affective Turn. What does Affective work look like beyond talk therapy. We begin with a piece by Marie-Nathalie Beaudoin on working with intense emotions. David Pare and Ian Percy show how they integrate narrative therapy with mindfulness practices. Danielle Drake & Shoshana Simons describe how they bring expressive arts into their narrative approach. Lynne Rosen briefly describes her approach to integrating narrative therapy, EMDR, and somatic therapies. We also highlight Laure Maurin’s work in Bordeaux France on When the Body Speaks. Watch a brief excerpt from the conversation between David Pare and Ian Percy on mindfulness practices.

 This lesson focuses on the works of  Marie-Nathalie Beaudoin, Danielle Drake & Shoshana Simons, Jan Ewing, Navid Zamini & Gerald Monk, Laure Maurin, Lynne Rosen, David Pare and Ian Percy.

Lesson Eight: Toward a More Contemporary Narrative Therapy Story

What might a more contemporary narrative therapy look like? We review where we are now, rethinking some of our narrative therapy guides, and how emotion and embodiment are being integrated into narrative therapy.

 This lesson focuses on the works of  Marie-Nathalie Beaudoin, Maggie Carey, David Epston, Jan Ewing, SuEllen Hamkins, Gerald Monk, Lynne Rosen, Peggy Sax, Navid Zamani, and Jeff Zimmerman.

Lesson Nine: Next Steps

Our final lesson explores what comes next as we put these ideas into practice. What happens when we attend more in our practice to emotions and the body? What are our hopes for the future? We give references and introduce the next course in this series.

 This lesson brings together the voices of Maggie Carey, Jan Ewing, Gerald Monk Lynne Rosen, Peggy Sax and Jeff Zimmerman.
