I would like to say a big 'thank-you' for this particular training – as a recently qualified interpreter it is such a relief to realise that I'm not the only one who has feelings of self-doubt with an increasingly loud gremlin voice!
What you'll learn
‘I’m just not good enough!’
In the course of your professional practice you may have heard a colleague say this, or you may even have said it yourself. This feeling of not being good enough is rooted in shame. This webinar will examine the issue of shame, with a specific focus on how feelings of shame and inadequacy can impact on the relationships interpreters have with their deaf and hearing clients.
We will take a detailed look at where shame can originate from and how it affects us. We will consider how we can recognise feelings of shame and what our individual triggers might be. I will detail how interpreters can be alert to feelings of shame within interpreted interaction. Finally we will explore how we can manage these feelings when they arise, and how we can build resilience to shame.

- Understand the powerful nature of shame and where it originates from
- Have an awareness of how shame can arise in interpreted interaction
