Narrative Therapy: Rewriting Your Personal Story with AI

Narrative therapy treats the problem as separate from the person, asking not 'what's wrong with me?' but 'how has this story become dominant in my life, and what other stories are true?' This shift creates psychological distance and agency, letting you examine and revise the narratives that have been running you.

Why It Matters

Narrative therapy is a mental health approach that treats personal identity as a story people tell about themselves, and invites them to reauthor that story in ways that reduce suffering and increase agency. It separates the person from the problem rather than defining them by it.

AI supports narrative therapy by helping users identify limiting self-stories, generate alternative life narratives, and practice writing their experiences in more empowering language on a consistent basis.
