Case ReportsCognitive Behavioural Relating Therapy (CBRT) for voice hearers: a case study.
There has been a recent focus on the interpersonal nature of the voice hearing experience, with studies showing that similar patterns of relating exist between voice hearer and voice as between voice hearer and social others. Two recent therapeutic approaches to voices, Cognitive Therapy for Command Hallucinations and Relating Therapy, have been developed to address patterns of relating and power imbalances between voice hearer and voice. ⋯ The outcomes provide preliminary support for the utility of CBRT when working with voice hearers.
