Join us for two virtual workshops where we explore how caregivers can support their family members who are hearing voices due to psychosis. These online, 2-hour interactive sessions will help caregivers gain a deeper understanding into the context of hearing voices others can’t, contributing factors that help or harm a voice hearer’s experience of their voices, and how to use a CBT-p informed approach to communicate and support someone in their voice hearing.

Many psychological treatment models for bipolar disorder emphasize the need for mood stabilizing medication and focus on methods of ensuring medication adherence. Although medications can be helpful for some people, modern cognitive behavioural therapies also emphasize cognitive approaches to mood stabilization. This 5-Day experiential workshop focuses on developing clinical skills for working with clients experiencing bipolar disorder to reduce mood swings and enhance recovery.
