Claire experienced tormenting voices since age 10, struggling for effective treatment until she participated in a digital avatar therapy trial. This innovative therapy allows patients to visualize their hallucinations through designed avatars, enabling them to confront these voices in a controlled environment. During her sessions, Claire learned to communicate and challenge the voices, marking significant progress, especially when she successfully validated her medication regimen. Remarkably, after a series of sessions, the distressing voice diminished, demonstrating the therapy's potential in treating psychosis and helping individuals reclaim control over their experiences.
"The principle is that you sit down with your therapist and design the avatar, allowing the clinician and patient to manifest the voices people hear."
"Claire was in her early fifties when she signed up for one of the trials. It was only about five minutes, the first session, but something had changed because I did answer back."
