Interpreters and Therapy

Curiosity killed the cat, or so they say. Please read the following questions and answer honestly (don't hold back, the more raw information the better the outcome)

Have you ever experienced therapy before?

If you have, please talk a little about the experience you had

Did you experience a specific type of therapy or have a specific type of technique used on you (EMDR, NET, CBT, IFS, etc.)? If so please answer below.

Have you attended MHIT?

If you answered yes to the previous question, what was your experience/what was the most influential thing you learned from that experience?

How likely would you do Mental Health Interpreting?

Have you ever worked with a Mental Health/Systemic therapist professionally before as an interpreter?

What is something that you wish therapists knew about working with the Deaf population that you don't they actually know (or that they would likely assume)?

As mentioned above when it comes to moves of therapy, do you have any opinion of what type of therapy would be best for the Deaf clients?

Any other ideas or comments towards the ideas of therapists and ASL interpreters working together?

Please enter your email address if you would like to be in collaboration with systemic-thinking therapists or would be interested in workshops geared towards therapists and interpreters working together
