Compassion Focused Approaches to Working With Distressing Voices
Overview
This paper outlines a Compassion Focused Therapy approach for voice-hearing, framing the experience through evolutionary mechanisms of social monitoring and threat responses. It targets individuals who perceive themselves as subordinate to hostile dominant figures, aiming to help them shift from defensive motivational systems to those centered on safeness and compassion. The resource describes how clients can cultivate a compassionate self-identity and utilize techniques like chair-work to regulate affect and resolve emotional conflict.
