    Thank you All, the wide inclusion and different perspectives seem to signal a welcome for true diversity, bringing us all together to be a therapeutic community for one another?

    I enjoy the concept of being given the space to express yourself through story telling. The idea that narrative therapy provides a platform for individuals not having to accept the discourses that have been told and instead deciding/creating your own narrative really resonates with me. Its great to hear so many lived experiences.

    Great to hear how narrative therapy resonates with the Practitioners. Especially liked the take on separating the person from the problem.

    This is the best welcome ever. I’m sitting at my kitchen table beaming!

    Good morning from the unceded lands of Musqueam, Squamish, and Tsleil-Waututh Nations (Vancouver, Canada). I’m Shila, born and raised East Javanese & North Sumatran from Indonesia. So lovely to hear from you all!
    This must be the warmest, realest, and most human welcome I’ve ever experienced in an online course! Thank you for putting a big smile on my face. Really excited to learn from everyone :-)

    I love the concept of telling and re-telling our story in therapy. I believe that we are the authors of our lives and through telling our stories or re-creating our stories can help us understand not only our culture, but also understand ourselves. I love using Narrative Therapy in my practice, especially when I can combine it with art therapy. I am really looking forward to hearing and learning of others experience and expanding my own understanding and clinical practice.

    Alberto’s welcome has struck me in the first few seconds. I am Australian born and know first hand so many people of my generation who went to school and were ‘given’ a name that the admin officer could pronounce instead of using the actual name given by their parents. I am looking forward to learning more.

    G’day. Kia Ora. Guten Morgen. What a wonderful welcome to the course and a lovely reminder that we are all made up of many stories past and present. I’m looking forward to exploring a Narrative approach further, how this relates to me and the people I talk and listen with.
