About Your Speaker
Local speaker Mr. Mohd Fareez brings his depth of knowledge of Narrative Therapy and experience and contextualizes it within Singapore’s mental health community, for focused application. Special topics to be covered include: definitional ceremonies, use of outsider witnesses, and re-authoring conversations – all for helping support client's recovery and reconnecting with their respective communities.
A Course Brief
Narrative Therapy was developed as an approach to counselling in response to the power relations influencing individual’s lives. One of the key concepts of narrative therapy is the dominant problem-saturated story of the person is challenged by externalizing the problem, and through therapy, helps facilitate the development of an alternative narrative. Within this process, a definitional ceremony involving outsider witnesses is used in influencing these narrative shifts. First the individual is given the opportunity to reappear and to retell their story in front of witnesses. Then, the witnesses are encouraged to retell parts of the story that moved them in a special way, reflecting how their own perspectives may have been challenged or changed after hearing the person share. These re-authoring conversations give hope to many, helping to make sense out of pain and loss, reconnecting individuals to themselves and to their community as a whole.
