Registration is open for the following narrative trainings and programs.​ CEUs are available.

Working with People Facing Despair, Unworthiness and/or Suicidal Thoughts - SOLD OUT

Dates & Times: Friday, September 29th, 2023; 10:00 am to 5:00 pm Eastern

Location: online via Zoom

Instructor: Amy Druker, MSW

Registration Fee: Early Bird Registration Rate until July 1st -- $130.00, Regular Registration Rate after July 1st  -- $140.00, Student/Senior Registration Rate -- $75.00 

The workshop is for people who have a solid understanding of the Narrative worldview and for those who have heard of narrative therapy but haven’t been introduced to its collaborative, respectful and socially just ways of understanding people and problems. By refusing to locate problems inside of  people, and by always seeing problems in the broader cultural context in which these problems were produced, narrative therapy stands against the individualizing and pathologizing of people’s suffering.

This year-long Narrative Certificate Program is for people interested in developing a rigorous personal understanding of the Narrative Worldview and its social justice ethics and practices. The goal of this course is to help participants establish a solid foundation for their narrative practitioner identity and preferred ways of helping. Drawing from participants' personal and professional lived experiences, the course emphasizes a peer experiential-learning philosophy and community-building orientation. There is an expectation that participants will have had some formal introduction to the Narrative Worldview prior to the course. NTI's one-day "What Is Narrative Therapy?" and two-day "Narrative Therapy in Practice" trainings, or their equivalent, are required for registration.

What is Narrative Therapy?

Dates & Times: Friday January 26, 2024; 10:00 am to 5:00 pm Eastern

Location: online via Zoom

Instructor: Amy Druker, MSW 

Registration Fee: Early Bird Regular Registration Rate available until 11/30/23 -- $120.00, Regular Registration Rate after 11/30/23 -- $135.00, Student/Senior Registration Rate -- $75.00 

This workshop is for people who are new(er) to narrative therapy and interested in learning (or learning more) about its collaborative, respectful and socially just ways of understanding people and problems. By refusing to locate problems inside of people, and by always seeing problems in the broader cultural context in which these problems were produced, narrative therapy stands against the individualizing and pathologizing of people’s suffering. The intention of this workshop is to offer participants a taste of the politics and ethics that guide narrative therapy practices, and to consider how and in what ways these values and ethics fit and/or don’t fit with their own values, ethics and preferred ways of being in this work.

Narrative Therapy In Practice  

Dates & Times: Friday & Saturday February 23rd & 24th, 2024; 10:00 am to 5:00 pm Eastern

Location: online via Zoom

Instructor: Suzanne Gazzolo, PhD, LCPC, and Matt Mooney, LICSW

Registration Fee: $280 for two-day course ($255, when participant completed NTI's "What Is Narrative Therapy?")

This practice and skill-based two-day training is for people wanting to learn how narrative therapy ideas, informed by poststructuralism, are put into practice in therapeutic settings. In particular, we explore externalizing practices and skills in the context of deconstructing and re-authoring therapy conversations. Clinical examples and experiential exercises will help support participants’ learning. Participants can expect to learn how narrative practitioners work to help people separate their lives from problems and identify new steps they can take that fit with their hopes and values. After completing this course, you can further your skill development through NTI's Narrative Certificate Program, which begins each fall.
