Stephen Madigan – Narrative Family Therapy

Narrative Family Therapy
by Stephen Madigan
Ollie is a 12 year-old African-American boy who has been court-ordered to therapy after hitting his classmate with his belt. Watch Stephen Madigan, expert Narrative therapist, as he compassionately engages Ollie and his mother in a fascinating inquiry into their experience of racism, discovering there’s much more to this incident than meets the eye.

Beginning with the premise that “the problem is the problem, the person is not the problem,” Madigan guides the viewer on an intriguing journey through the foundational narrative therapy techniques such as externalization and re-authoring conversations. By asking a series of purposeful questions intended to help Ollie and his mother “tell their story,” Madigan masterfully shows how to uncover the client’s stance on the problem and how to develop an alternative plot that supports a client’s preferred identity.

With persistence and openness, Madigan validates this family’s experience of racism and helps Ollie regain his “good boy reputation.” This is an exceptional opportunity to engage with the compelling principles of Narrative Therapy and learn how to put these transformational ideas into practice.

WHAT THERAPISTS ARE SAYING…
In an excellent illustration of a narrative interview, Stephen Madigan cautiously questions an African American mother and her son, making visible the effects of racism. Madigan’s narrative map of understanding allows him to be curious and respectful, following the young boy’s intention to escape what could perhaps become a “troubled-boy reputation” and affirming his preference to have a “good-boy reputation.” This is a video I consistently use in teaching as a demonstration of narrative therapy, of deconstructing oppressive cultural discourses, with questions that closely follow the client.

In Depth
Madigan shares a refreshing approach to therapy that genuinely honors the individual’s experience. A great tool for learning the theory and techniques of Narrative Therapy, this video is also an exceptional example of how to truly listen to your clients. At the end of this family therapy session, the mother says to Madigan, “I didn’t know we would get to tell the story but it is a true story.” This session reminds us how healing it can be for people to have a space to tell their stories to a concerned and interested listener, and Madigan teaches us how to create that space.

By watching this video, you will:
• Learn how to conduct a therapeutic interview using Narrative Therapy techniques such as deconstruction, re-authoring, and identifying communities of concern.
• Understand the significance of privileging the client’s understanding of the problem and how to do this in an effective way.
• Develop skills for engaging clients in conversations about how socio-political issues such as racism play a role in the problems they are currently facing.
