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. Foundational concepts and skills are explored and linked directly to practice. These are then applied to examples of clients who may experience distressing voices or parallel realities.
The workshop includes a mixture of lecture and small/large group discussions.
Participants Will
- Understand the meaning and stages of Parallel Realities
- Understand the experience of hearing voices
- Examine foundational concepts and skills required to better support clients
- Understand and apply the Interview Process in client support
Target Audience

Participants can include front-line community workers, team leaders, managers, educators, consultants, police officers, first responders, family members and people interact with those who experience alternate realities.
