| description | The current study delves into the nuanced experiences of emerging adults originating from divorced families, unraveling the intricate interplay between self-discovery and family dynamics. Employing a narrative inquiry methodology, the study seeks to capture the unique narratives that emerge from the intersection of personal identity development and the impact of parental divorce. The theoretical framework is anchored in the Bowen Family Systems Theory, offering insights into the systemic influences on individual development within the context of family breakdown. Furthermore, the study integrates the Social Cognitive Model of Transference to explore the transmission of cognitive and emotional patterns of self with different significant others, shedding light on the ways in which emerging adults navigate their relationships and perceptions based on familial experiences. The synthesis of these theoretical foundations informs the development of a novel narrative therapy approach tailored to the specific needs and challenges faced by individuals from divorced families. Data are collected from 20 emerging adults (19-27 years old) experiencing parental divorce. By examining the lived experiences through the lens of narrative inquiry, the study contributes to a richer understanding of how personal narratives and family systems coalesce in shaping the developmental trajectory of individuals from divorced families. Ultimately, this research lays the foundation for a narrative therapy framework that acknowledges and addresses the unique challenges faced by individuals navigating the complexities of self-discovery and family relationships in the aftermath of parental separation.
