One way to look at communication in therapy is to see it as narrative, a story created by client and therapist. This idea fits well with transactional analysis. A therapist's awareness of the story's powerful force increases the power of therapy. This article describes procedures that will help a therapist stay true to a client's story and develop awarenesses that can help a client obtain effective help.
