The practical handbook provides an overview of proven methods for biographical work in psychotherapy and presents various life review interventions. The core objective of all these methods is to address the biography or the life history connections of a patient that contribute to, influence, and maintain a disorder. While biographical work focuses more on analyzing individual aspects that serve as triggering conditions for problematic behavior, life review methods aim to place experiences within a broader context and draw a life balance, allowing for a reconciliatory and healing perspective on life and personal development. Following an introduction to the theoretical concepts of biographical work, the handbook includes established approaches from cognitive behavioral therapy.
