About Guided Autobiography (GAB)
Guided Autobiography is a unique form of self-reflection that encourages and assists individuals in writing their life story. It is an interactive process that provides guidance and support from an experienced facilitator who helps the participant identify meaningful moments, themes, and values in their life and create a narrative based on these reflections. It allows for individuals to take ownership of their autobiographical process, providing them with the agency to share only those aspects of their life they feel comfortable disclosing.
Guided Autobiography is beneficial for both mental and physical health. Writing one’s life story can bring about feelings of greater understanding and appreciation of oneself while helping the individual recognize how far they have come in terms of personal growth. Through this reflective exercise, participants can gain insight into how experiences from their past have shaped who they are today and how trauma or loss has impacted their lives. Additionally, it can provide a cathartic release, allowing them to express emotions that may otherwise remain unspoken.
