Synopsis

When is a mental illness or addiction a blessing rather than a curse? Might there be a metaphor that allows our clients to see themselves as the hero or heroine of their own lives rather than as the victim? Could there be a way to re-conceptualize the challenges of mental illness that inspires clients as well as their clinicians? How can we, as clinicians, support the recovery process of our clients?In this book you will learn about the cycles of the hero’s journey and the principles of narrative therapy. Using these perspectives can empower both you and your clients with a sense of hope and perseverance. Each one of us has a hero or heroine within; the challenge is learning to access and honor that part of ourselves.
