We're pleased to announce our next webinar: Talking With Voices: A Survivor-Informed Dialogical Approach to Working with Distressing Voices, happening from 1-2:30pm (Eastern) on Wednesday, August 13th.
Join Dirk Corstens, MD, and Allison Branitsky, PhD, representing both the legacy and the future of the Hearing Voices Movement, as they share insights from the UK's Talking with Voices II research trial and explore this transformative, survivor-informed approach to voice hearing.
Webinar Description:
Historically, mental health services have dissuaded voice hearers from talking to or engaging with their voices, instead favouring distraction or suppression techniques. Many voice hearers, however, have pushed back on this approach and developed ways to talk and relate to their voices. Rooted in the work of the Hearing Voices Movement, the Talking with Voices approach involves a therapist speaking directly to an individual’s voices, and the voice hearer repeating the voice’s responses verbatim, with the aim of helping to create a more peaceful and understanding relationship between voice(s) and voice hearer. This talk will provide a clinical and methodological overview of the Talking with Voices II trial, which is currently taking place across the UK.
Cost: $0-40 (read the full event description on website for details on how to access scholarship spaces.) 1.5 hours of CEs available for APA and New York Boards.
