Separating Yourself From Your Story

In this week's episode of ShrinkChicks, Emmalee and Jen zoom in on a specific theory in therapy called Narrative Therapy! They start the episode off by explaining what Narrative Therapy looks like and its four principles. Then Em and Jen share how to identify the narratives we each hold about ourselves, where they come from, how the narratives can shape our behavior, challenging these narratives, and how each version of you may carry a different narrative. They discuss that our narratives, while often self-protective in nature, can lead to a self-fulfilling prophecy. You also get to hear about Emmalee's goth phase in middle school and what it represented to her at the time. Tune in to learn how to move from insight to action! PS: Fast forward to around 6:15 into their convo to skip the intro and get straight to today’s content. Get Matched With One of Our Therapists at The Therapy Group!
