Özet
Sexual abuse is a common type of abuse both in Türkiye and worldwide. Various interventions are used in the treatment process of sexually abused individuals. This study aims to examine the use of Narrative Therapy and other narrative interventions in cases of sexual abuse. A systematic review methodology was employed in this study. The literature review included studies published in English between 2014 and 2024 in the Web of Science, PubMed, and Scopus databases. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and case studies examining narrative therapy and other narrative methods as an intervention in the treatment of sexually abused individuals were included. As a result of the inclusion and exclusion criteria, eight studies were included in the study. These studies have shown that methods related to Narrative Therapy can contribute to alleviating some of the negative symptoms associated with sexual abuse. However, further research is required to draw more accurate conclusions about the effectiveness of Narrative Therapy and related interventions in this area of concern.
