This theory-to-practice guide offers mental health practitioners a
powerful narrative-based approach to working with clients in
clinical practice. It opens with a primer on contemporary narrative
theory and offers a robust framework based on the art and
techniques of listening for deeper, more meaningful understanding
and intervention. Chapters expand on these foundational concepts by
applying them to a diverse range of populations and issues, among
them race and ethnicity, human sexuality, immigration, and the
experience of trauma, grief, and loss. The author's engaging voice,
thoughtful pedagogical style, and extensive use of examples and
exercises also work together to inform the reader's own narrative
of growth and self-knowledge. Included in the coverage:*
Encountering the self, encountering the other: narratives of race
and ethnicity.* Surviving together: individual and communal
narratives in the wake of tragedy.* Spiritual stories: exploring
ultimate meaning in social work practice.* Sexual stories:
narratives of sexual identity, gender, and sexual development.*
Leaving home, finding home: narrative practice with immigrant
populations.* Moving on: narrative perspectives on grief and loss.
Narrative Theory in Clinical Social Work Practice is geared toward
students as well as seasoned social workers, and professionals and
practitioners in related clinical fields interested in informing
their work with a narrative approach.
