101 HEALING STORIES
Using Metaphors in Therapy

George W. Burns
John Wiley & Sons, 2001

LEARNING OBJECTIVES: The reader will be able to tell stories that engage the client, make them metaphoric, and learn where to find sources for such tales.

Stories have the power to enrich our lives, shape the way we perceive and interact with the world, and reveal the human spirit. They can also play an important role in therapy, helping people develop the skills to cope with and survive life situations. This book examines the healing value of metaphors in therapy and provides 101 story ideas that therapists can share with their clients to help them change.

George W. Burns is a clinical psychologist and Director of the Milton H. Erickson Institute of Western Australia. He is also a trainer of therapists and the author of Nature-Guided Therapy: Brief, Integrative Strategies for Health and Well-Being.
