“We don’t just witness the trauma; we channel the trauma.” When interpreters work in courtrooms, doctors’ offices, or other high-stress environments, they can absorb vicarious trauma from the situation. We invited Mila Golovine, founder of Masterword, to talk to us about how that trauma happens and how interpreters can work through it before, during, and after an assignment, and to let those interpreters know they aren’t alone. Settle in for a talk on brain chemistry and emotions!
