ABSTRACT

Background

As access to psychological therapy for voice-hearing continues to increase, it is important to understand what treatment outcomes may be particularly valued by those who coordinate, administer, and engage with such interventions.

Methods

Self-report cross-sectional questionnaires were distributed amongst samples of transdiagnostic voice-hearers and multidisciplinary mental health staff to identify and contrast opinions on the importance of different treatment outcomes for therapeutic work with voices.

Results

Responses were received by 89 service-users and 176 staff members. Both groups showed many similarities in their view of desirable treatment goals, although service-users were more likely to prioritise a clinically focussed view of recovery (voice cessation), while staff emphasised a more psychosocial view (to live the life one wants to while hearing voices).

Discussion

Study limitations and implications for clinical practice are discussed, including the value of collaborative goal setting when supporting clients who experience distressing voices.

声音心理治疗的首选治疗结果：工作人员和服务使用者观点的比较

摘要

背景

随着声音听力心理治疗的普及，重要的是要了解哪些治疗结果可能受到协调、管理和参与此类干预措施的人的特别重视。

方法

在跨诊断声音听者和多学科心理健康工作人员样本中分发了自我报告横断面调查问卷，以识别和对比不同治疗结果对声音治疗工作的重要性的观点。

结果

89 名服务使用者和 176 名工作人员收到了答复。两组对理想治疗目标的看法有许多相似之处，尽管服务使用者更有可能优先考虑以临床为中心的康复观点（停止声音），而工作人员则强调更社会心理的观点（在听到声音的同时过上自己想要的生活）的声音）。

讨论

讨论了研究的局限性和对临床实践的影响，包括在支持经历痛苦声音的客户时协作目标设定的价值。
