: No financial support was received and this research was instead based largely on the good will of participating mental health professionals and persons who hear voices at the participating research sites. The first author conducted the study as part of a self-funded PhD at the University of the West of Scotland (in collaboration with the University of Applied Sciences, Faculty V, Hanover, Germany). He is a freelance trainer at the efc Institut, specialising in the provision of training and supervision in Experience Focussed Counselling. He received no fees for the provision of EFC training and supervision during the study. Following completion of the study he was unexpectedly offered and accepted employment with the St Ansgar gGmbH, Kropp, which had taken part in the study. No financial gain was expected.
