How narrative and solution-focused work online
Narrative Therapy helps people look at the stories they tell about themselves. In simple terms it separates the person from the problem and helps reframe difficult experiences. This approach can be useful for family history issues, identity questions, and changing roles at home.Solution-Focused Therapy zooms in on practical steps that lead to quick improvements. It asks what is already working and builds small, doable changes. This method often fits parents juggling routines, blended families, and moment-to-moment stress.
Choosing the right method is a team effort. The therapist will talk with clients about goals and preferences, then try approaches that match those needs. If something does not fit, adjustments are made together so work stays relevant and useful.
Online sessions include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to offer flexibility. These options make it easier to fit meetings around school, work, and caregiving. They also allow ongoing support between scheduled meetings and let families use the format that feels most comfortable.
Narrative Therapy
Looking at the story you have come to tell about yourself, and where it came from. The work is in separating the problem from your identity and finding accounts that fit you better.
Solution-Focused Therapy
Rather than examining the problem at length, this looks at what is already working and builds on it. Sessions tend to be practical and forward-looking, with small achievable steps, which translates readily to shorter online conversations.
