In this article we review the main interventions based on the narrative paradigm in the context of the systemic model. Firstly, we briefly recapitulate, at the risk of being overly simplistic, the evolution of family therapy describing how this process accompanies the development of narrative practice. Second, we focus on the description of Michael White’s narrative therapy and his externalization procedure detailing every stage of the therapeutic process with clinical examples in order to give the reader a detailed view of common narrative interventions. A final section is allocated to describe the affinity between personal construct theory and narrative therapy highlighting its fruitfulness for the evolution of the systemic model.
