"Storytelling is the essential human activity.  The harder the situation, the more essential it is."  
                                                    - Tim O'Brien, author

The Life Narrative Interview is a way of helping someone reconnect with their high points, defining moments, and finest hours. Remembering those positive experiences helps buffer the feelings of vulnerability and helplessness that so often accompany life difficulties such as change, loss, or medical illness and treatment. In our two books, you'll discover more about Life Narrative Interviews and learn the skills necessary to conduct them with medical patients, people having difficulty, or with family members or friends who would simply enjoy remembering the positive experiences of their life.  Happy interviewing!
