Queering your therapy practice : queer theory, narrative therapy, and imagining new identities
Author:Julie Beth Tilsen
Any books on Queer Narrative Therapy and similar topics appreciated greatly! My anchor partner and I are starting a Queer Collective for Neurospicy folks like us, and along with Peer Support meetings, we’d like to offer classes. And since we’re both writers, I thought a Narrative Therapy course would be a great place to start, helping people learn to tell their stories and reclaim their narrative. ^-^
