NARRATIVE THERAPY
Narrative therapy is a form of pscyhotherapy that aims to help externalise a client's problems, so the clients view it as something that's impacting their life. Not who they are as a person. To make space betwen the problem or ssue and the person. Allowing client to see that their current narrative is not serving them but is causing harm. By re-authoring your life stories focusing on positive interpretation and emotions.
Narrative therapists help the client understand how their problems have been constructed and supported. Enabling then to re-author an alternative narrative story that is aligned with their ideal or preferred identtity or goal (who they wish to become or what they want to attain).
Its effective therapy to use for depression in conjunction with cbt therapy and other modalities

HUMANISTIC APPROACH & MOTIVATIONAL INTERVIEWING
Humanistic approach shares the vision of pscyhology that places human capacity for creativity, choice and growth. Influenced by eastern European traditions and philosophies and European religions such as Buddhism.
The Humanistic approach is the person centred approach.
A person striving to find meaning and fulfilment in the world and in life.
It consists of awareness, of oneself and their capabilites, their role with others and that there are choices and with choices there are reponsibilites and ownership of those choices.
Humans are aware that they are intentional and there is intention, aim at achieving goals and many of the times are aware they are the cause of future events.
The Humanistic approach focuses on personal growth and development.
Every individual has a free will, and can make choices and decisions based on their experiences, environments and beliefs and goals.
Our choices create our future, There is no single reality. Our choices determine our future and outcomes.
This awareness helps the clients grow, reach their potential and move towards self actualisation.
Based on three core conditions necessary for clients to change:
- Empathy
- Unconditionall positive regard
- Genuineness
This theory of person centred approach is based on the client and counsellor relationship will help them make progress and respond with constructive changes.

MOTIVATIONAL INTERVIEWING
Is a counselling approach developed by psychologists William R. Miller and Stephen Rollnick. It involves a directive, client - centred counselling approach which aim to help change a clients behaviour by helping them explore and resolve ambivalnce.
Based on beliefs that clients have resistence to change, mixed feelings or contradictory ideas about doing something about change or about someone..
Its a positive optimistic approach targetingr esolving this ambivalence by eliciting and reinforcing the talk for change.
PERSON CENTRED THERAPY
Carl Rogers was an American psychologist and the founder of the Humanistic Psychology Approach.
He draws on 3 beliefs:
- Humanism: We all have potential for growth and development.
- Existentialism: We all possess free will and make choices based on our Individual experiences and our personal beliefs.
- Phenomology: There is not one single reality, rather our reality is constructed through our own individual experiences and beliefs.
the client is the driving force, and the focus is on what happening in their present and what they want to achieve.
The relationship between the client and the counsellor/coach is vital and a catalyst to help empower the client to make constructive changes.
