The Room of Requirement
Six tools drawn from the world of Harry Potter — each one a doorway into a different kind of self-knowledge.
Choose your tool
These tools draw on psychoanalytic and narrative therapy traditions — using the power of metaphor and story to reach places direct conversation sometimes cannot.
Name it
What we can name, we can begin to understand
Reframe it
Perspective changes what a thing can do to us
Hold it
We carry our inner life — it need not carry us
The Room of Requirement is a tool for personal reflection and coaching.
It is not a substitute for professional mental health care.
Based on Noctor (2006), Putting Harry Potter on the Couch.
