    Paperback. Etat : Very Good. Children Hearing Voices is a unique, innovative book providing support and practical solutions for the experience of hearing voices. It is in two parts, one part for voice-hearing children, the other part for parents and adult carers. Escher and Romme have over twenty-five years experience of working with voice-hearers, pioneering the theory and practice of accepting and working with the meaning in voices. The children's section: This book has mainly been written for children who hear voices. The information in this book is largely derived from a three-year study amongst 80 children and adolescents who were interviewed about their experiences; children who ranged in age from 8 to 19 years at first contact. Little is known about voice hearing in children. Most people still have this notion that it is a disease for life. In this book, readers will find extensive information about how to look differently at voice hearing; learning to deal with it and discovering what might help to cope with the voices. The parents'/adults' section: It became increasingly clear to us how little information parents of children hearing voices were getting and that if parents found information, it was almost always based on the assumption that voice hearing was a serious disease. We noticed that the children of those parents who dared to search and go their own way were doing better. This book is for these parents. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…

This book is a groundbreaking development in modern mental health because it recognises the importance of the first hand experience and argues that hearing voices is not a sign of madness but a reaction to serious problems in life. Must-read book for all concerned with mental health issues. A new analysis of the hearing voices experience outside the illness model, resulted in accepting and making sense of voices.

    Paperback. Etat : New. This magnificent book brings together in one volume all thetheory, learning, research, wisdom from practice and practical examples of therevolutionary work of Marius Romme, Sandra Escher and Dirk Corstens intosupporting people who hear voices. Challenging the fundamental premises ofmainstream psychiatry, Romme, Escher and Corstens have pioneered their approachof 'making sense of voices' since the 1980s. They were the first to listen toand talk with the voices of voice hearers, and to realise that the identitiesof the voices and what they had to say held huge meaning in the contexts ofvoice hearers' lives. These were not hallucinations or delusions but phenomenawhose words offered clues both to the person's history (frequently of childhoodabuse and severe trauma) and how they might be helped to learn to live withtheir voices and recover. For far too many people, the blunt interventionspreferred by mainstream psychiatry - incarceration in psychiatric institutions,loss of independence and long-term reliance on welfare and heavy doses ofneuroleptics and tranquillisers - had in fact robbed them of the mental andemotional capacity and external resources they needed to help themselves.This book explains the history and reports the wealth of researchconducted to support this way of working, together with detailed practicaladvice on how to use the approach with voice hearers. Drawing on the accountsof numerous voice hearers, in addition to the clinical research, this book isthe go-to resource for those who hear voices, the people who love and supportthem and those whose work brings them into contact with voice hearers and whowish to help them find ways to negotiate a positive relationship with theirsometimes unwelcome and vociferous companions.Unlikemedication, this approach works, has no distressing side effects, and canenable the person to co-exist with the voices that they find helpful, whileothers that could be hostile and even seemingly evil, can be managed or even goaway. Once heeded, their messages, which could often be attempts to protect thevoice hearer, were no longer needed.…

    Paperback. Etat : New. This magnificent book brings together in one volume all thetheory, learning, research, wisdom from practice and practical examples of therevolutionary work of Marius Romme, Sandra Escher and Dirk Corstens intosupporting people who hear voices. Challenging the fundamental premises ofmainstream psychiatry, Romme, Escher and Corstens have pioneered their approachof 'making sense of voices' since the 1980s. They were the first to listen toand talk with the voices of voice hearers, and to realise that the identitiesof the voices and what they had to say held huge meaning in the contexts ofvoice hearers' lives. These were not hallucinations or delusions but phenomenawhose words offered clues both to the person's history (frequently of childhoodabuse and severe trauma) and how they might be helped to learn to live withtheir voices and recover. For far too many people, the blunt interventionspreferred by mainstream psychiatry - incarceration in psychiatric institutions,loss of independence and long-term reliance on welfare and heavy doses ofneuroleptics and tranquillisers - had in fact robbed them of the mental andemotional capacity and external resources they needed to help themselves.This book explains the history and reports the wealth of researchconducted to support this way of working, together with detailed practicaladvice on how to use the approach with voice hearers. Drawing on the accountsof numerous voice hearers, in addition to the clinical research, this book isthe go-to resource for those who hear voices, the people who love and supportthem and those whose work brings them into contact with voice hearers and whowish to help them find ways to negotiate a positive relationship with theirsometimes unwelcome and vociferous companions.Unlikemedication, this approach works, has no distressing side effects, and canenable the person to co-exist with the voices that they find helpful, whileothers that could be hostile and even seemingly evil, can be managed or even goaway. Once heeded, their messages, which could often be attempts to protect thevoice hearer, were no longer needed.…
