For SENCOs, Pastoral Leads & SEMH Support Staff
StoryMapper is a structured facilitation tool for 1:1 narrative work with children — from surface story to new story to anchor, in four stages.
The Problem
What looks like defiance, avoidance or shutdown is usually a child acting from a story they've built about themselves. Without addressing the story, the behaviour keeps returning.
Most emotional literacy tools give children words for their feelings. StoryMapper goes further — it helps children examine the evidence for their self-story, and build a new one.
StoryMapper saves every session and builds a version history. You can see, across weeks, how a child's narrative about themselves is shifting.
What it does
"I'm not good at anything..."
"I work hard at things that matter to me..."
What the child actually said. Real moments, real proof.
The Approach
"StoryMapper applies narrative therapy, perceptual position shifts and emotional reframing — serious psychological frameworks — in language a Year 2 child can follow. No jargon. Just the outcome." — The StoryMapper approach
Who it's for
A structured protocol for 1:1 SEMH support that tracks progression and produces a printable outcome document.
Use across year groups with age-appropriate language automatically adjusted per prompt set.
StoryMapper guides the facilitator through every stage — no counselling training required.
