This full day webinar provides participants with an experiential and reflective opportunity to learn to support clients who hear voices, or experience other types of parallel realities (visual, tactile, etc. hallucinations) using a client centred, recovery-based theoretical framework. Parallel realities will be explored and defined.

  1. Understand the meaning and stages of Parallel Realities
  2. Understand the experience of hearing voices
  3. Examine foundational concepts and skills required to better support clients
