For all common forms of therapy, the inclusion of therapeutic stories and metaphors is a valuable enhancement. They directly impact the unconscious. The manual provides texts for all frequently occurring disorders that can be directly adopted or adapted, and it explains how to use them effectively. Stories and metaphors resonate with the soul, as they appeal to the unconscious aspects within us. The resolution of a problem is left to the unconscious, whose search capabilities are demonstrably richer than rational thinking. The Handbook of Therapeutic Storytelling is the first comprehensive publication on this creative intervention form. It offers two things: a wealth of therapeutic metaphors and stories created by the author, categorized by issues and therapeutic goals.
