 Storytelling matters​...

Picture
My research lab at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln - NARRATIVE NEBRASKA - seeks to implement interdisciplinary, narrative-based interventions to improve caregiving, communication, and psychosocial well-being for families and care providers.

Grounded in the theory of Communicated Narrative Sense-Making (Koenig Kellas & Kranstuber Horstman, 2015), we study the impact of family stories; the process of family storytelling; and the ways in which narrative research theory, and methods can be used to inform interventions for individuals and families coping with illness, stress, trauma, and other difficulties.
