Discover how narrative therapy helps you move through grief and anxiety by reconnecting with your story, values, and hope for what’s next.

Feeling stuck in your story?

Meeting with a narrative therapist is a soft and collaborative approach that helps you find meaning, resilience and hope.

When grief, anxiety and life transitions cloud your path, life feels heavy – it’s easy to lose sight of who you are and where you’re going. That’s where narrative therapy can gently help. It’s not about labeling or fixing, it’s about helping you reclaim your voice and re-shape your story.

Here are three ways a narrative therapist can help spark hope again:

1. Name your story, not just your struggle. You’re more than a diagnosis or a hard season. A narrative therapist listens for the strength beneath the sorrow and helps you name the resilience that’s already there. Sometimes we just need someone to say, “I see it, too.

2. Find Threads of Meaning During Grief or Anxiety
They look for threads of meaning. In the messiest chapters of life, meaning can feel lost. A narrative approach helps you connect the dots to your values, your choices, your faith, your voice. This helps you realize that there’s still purpose, even in the pain.

3. Your Story isn’t Over Yet and a Narrative Therapist Helps You Re-imagining What’s Next
They remind you that the story isn’t over. Even when you feel stuck, this chapter is not the end. Narrative therapy helps you imagine what’s next, one small step at a time. That kind of hope is quiet and steady and can be life-giving when you’re in the midst of struggle.

We all need reminders that our story isn’t over, that healing is possible, and there are companions on the journey.

Our counselling and therapy services offer expereinced narrative therapy and companioning for grief, anxiety, burnout and trauma. If you want to speak to someone, please reach out.
