SHSS Faculty Presents Training in Narrative Therapy

Paul Gallant, Ph.D., faculty in the Department of Family Therapy in the Graduate School of Humanities and Social Sciences (SHSS), presented a workshop on Narrative Therapy on March 3, 2010, at Boys Town of South Florida.

Gallant, an expert in the field of Narrative Therapy, presented two real life cases that demonstrated the effectiveness of the Narrative Therapy approach. The workshop provided ideas on how to work with the most challenging families and featured videotaped examples of applying Narrative Therapy principles in work with teachers, families, and children.

Gallant is also the coordinator of the Consortium for Narrative Research and Practice at NSU, which was formed through the efforts of the Departments of Family Therapy, Conflict Analysis and Resolution, and Multidisciplinary Studies at SHSS.
