Hearing Voices with Dr. Joachim Schnackenberg
An interview with Dr. Joachim Schnackenberg about his work with people who hear voices. Dr. Schnackenberg is a consultant for hearing voices and recovery in Germany and a researcher, supervisor and trainer in Experience Focussed Counselling with Voice Hearers (also known as Making Sense of Voices or Working with Voices) primarily provided in the German and English language. We discuss the approach of 'listening to the voice' discerning its message and seeing it as ultimately either benevolent in nature, or at least with the potential to use the experience towards a positive end if the experience remains considered negative despite an attempt to work constructively with it, no matter how malevolent it may appear. http://www.intervoiceonline.org/ www.efc-institut.de www.hearing-voices.org www.workingtorecovery.co.uk http://deepstateconsciousness.com/
