Started in 2011 by PsychMaven founder and creative lead, Dr. David Hall, the Narrative Institute began by hosting local workshops on narrative-based approaches in psychotherapy and addiction recovery. In a short amount of time, the Narrative Institute began organizing independent continuing education events in other cities in the United States and then led a week-long training in the United Kingdom in the summer of 2012. At the beginning of 2019, the Narrative Institute became one of the founding component institutes of PsychMaven and will continue to offer its trainings in the use of story-craft and narrative therapy in the behavioral health profession. Current and upcoming course offerings from the Narrative Institute include:

• Ethics for Mental Health Professionals

• Introduction to Narrative in Psychotherapy

• Behavioral Effects of Technology
