Part of the Tavistock Clinic Series, this book focuses on narrative
and stories in Family Systems Therapy - particularly on how stories
develop within the domain of a therapist's own theoretical,
clinical and professional contexts. The aim is to allow the reader
to understand the uses of stories in family therapy.This book
offers a comprehensive overview of issues related to narrative
which appear in a family therapy setting. Originally embarking on a
joint project to share clinical experience, members of the Family
Systems Group at the Tavistock Clinic discovered that what was
common in their work was their emphasis on narrative. This
discovery led in time to the development of a shared discourse
about their diverse approaches to narrative which are carefully
reflected in the contributions in this volume. Part One sets out
the context of narrative with contributions on bilingualism and the
family's experience of therapy, ending with a thought provoking
critique of narrative. Part Two concentrates on applications of
these ideas, providing analysis of multiple narratives in illness
and loss, gender and language, neonatal care, adoption, divorce and
refugee families.
