2. Re-authoring identity of the individual

3. working with Maps of Narrative Practices including Landscape of Action and Landscape of Identity

4. Re-membering through developing the idea that identity is shaped by social connections and the "Club of Life"

5. Use of case studies and other practical examples

6. Outsider witnesses in-session practice

7. Definitional Ceremonies

8. Personal Agency discussed

9. Gender issues discussed

10. Addressing trauma situations with narrative therapy

11. Absent but implicit concept discussed and used - enquiring into stories of the self beyond the problem saturated story of the individual
