Abstract
M.A.
Narrative therapy is explored through the works of David Epston and Michael White, as well as other texts, mostly originating from the seat of Narrative Therapy, the Dulwich Centre in Adelaide. Emphasis is placed on the history of narrative therapy, both distant and more recent before a discussion of the philosophy and method of narrative therapy is offered. An innovative section including the use of metaphor and a text analysis of extracts from the Count of Monte Cristo, by Alexander Dumas is included towards the end of the text. Narrative Therapy is discussed in an accessible and synoptic manner, with definitions of most of the more well used terms within the field.
