Brian Harvey and Phoenix Oaks will start facilitating a new Portland Hearing Voices group. It will be at the Process Work Institute Tuesdays from 11:15 am to 12:15 pm starting Tuesday, February 25th. (This is the time and day for now at least.) It’s located at 2049 NW Hoyt St. Portland, OR 97209.

The Hearing Voices Network is about affirming neurodiversity–voices, visions, and other “extreme” or “unusual” states–and empowering people who experience those states to define them and decide what is truly empowering. We welcome people who don’t want involvement with mainstream psychiatry, many of whom have been traumatized by pathologizing labels, psych meds, and/or institutionalization, and those who feel that psychiatry has been lifesaving in their experience.

Thank you, Brian and Phoenix!
