Narrative Initiatives San Diego (NISD) is a non-profit counseling, training and research organization, headquartered in San Diego, CA. We provide a rich, experiential Narrative Therapy training context for graduate students and pre-licensed counselors completing their clinical hours for licensure by the state of California, and licensed therapists wanting a Narrative home base. Through our NISD Counseling center, located inside the Center for Health and Wellbeing – a holistic medical practice in the community of Hillcrest – we provide inclusive and affordable mental health services to low-income, uninsured, underserved and marginalized populations.

Narrative LIVE | A Community Learning Experience is our educational series based on the premise that Narrative ideas can be best learned, practiced and embodied in community. This has been our philosophy since our inception in 2006 when we as a group of educators, students and health professionals first began meeting to discuss and practice the tenets of post-structuralism, social constructionism and Narrative Therapy within our integrative health setting. Over the years we have learned that being in the company of supportive colleagues who are paying close attention to relational ethics, performances of power, and with a keen ear towards our narratives of resilience and emerging initiatives, we can come to know ourselves better and begin to cultivate and inhabit the identities we prefer.

Narrative LIVE is for educators, students, mental and medical health professionals as well as community members from various disciplines who are interested in learning about and practicing Narrative ideas first developed by Michael White and David Epston. We will discuss some of the important theoretical concepts that underpin Narrative Therapy and demonstrate how they can be put into practice.
