At the ReStory Institute, you don’t just learn about Storywork.

We train you how to do it .

 

Does this sound like you?

  • You are a therapist, but have been curious to learn more about engaging story.

  • You've done some of your own Storywork and have always wondered if you could help others explore their stories.

  • You are looking for a theologically grounded, Christian-informed approach to healing trauma.

  • You’ve received training, but not much practice, and need feedback and help to improve.

  • You have the theory, but lack the practicals. How do you actually conduct a session with a client? What is the process or Storywork arc you should follow?

ReStory Institute training in Storywork

The ReStory Institute

Level One

A unique 13-week/30+hour virtual training in Storywork with video teaching, curated reading and coursework, live weekly group discussion with Storywork experts, supervised triadic practice, modeled storywork sessions, personal story engagement, direct feedback, and more.

 

The ReStory Institute is designed for people who want to step beyond theory into practice.

As part of the ReStory Institute Level One Cohort, we train you in the art and the science of Storywork, teaching you the ReStory® framework, sharpening your skills as a practitioner. As you participate in the laboratory of supervised triadic work within the context and teaching of the ReStory® framework, you not only learn about how to sit with people, you get to practice it.

So, whether this is your first entrance into the sacred space of one-on-one work, or you are a practiced clinician looking for Storywork training, the ReStory Institute will help you hone your praxis while guiding you in and through your own narratives.
