Current psychological models of voice hearing emphasise the personal meaning that individuals attribute to the voice hearing experience. Recent developments in theory and research have highlighted the importance of the relationship between the hearer and the voice. This study aims to contribute to this area of research, by exploring the experience and usefulness of a new form of 'Relating Therapy' that aims to modify distressing relationships with voices. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with ten participants and explored the experience and usefulness of a pilot of Relating Therapy: three therapists, three voice hearers, two relatives and two referrers. Interviews were transcribed and analysed using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis. Three themes that emerged from the analysis are presented for discussion: engaging with the therapeutic model; developing a new relating style; and how change is described and defined by participants. This study is consistent with the growing body of theory and research that highlights the interpersonal nature of the voice hearing experience. It also offers tentative support for a therapeutic framework that aims to modify distressing relationships with voices as a means of bringing about positive change. Clinical implications and areas for future research are outlined.
目前，关于幻听的心理学模型强调了个体对幻听体验赋予的个人意义。理论和研究的最新进展强调了倾听者和声音之间关系的重要性。本研究旨在通过探索一种旨在改变与声音的痛苦关系的新形式的“关系治疗”的体验和有效性，为这一研究领域做出贡献。对十名参与者进行了半结构化访谈，探讨了关系治疗的试点经验和有效性：三名治疗师、三名幻听者、两名亲属和两名转诊者。对访谈进行了转录和解释性现象学分析。呈现了三个主题进行讨论：参与治疗模式；发展新的关系风格；以及参与者如何描述和定义变化。这项研究与越来越多的理论和研究一致，这些理论和研究强调了幻听体验的人际性质。它还为旨在改变与声音的痛苦关系的治疗框架提供了初步支持，这是带来积极变化的一种手段。概述了临床意义和未来研究的领域。
