This book is a practical and helpful guide for therapists that outlines best practice in working with interpreters. It provides an accessible tool for therapists working in a range of settings from small unfunded therapy teams in the voluntary sector to primary care work.

Working with Interpreters in Psychological Therapy has been written collaboratively by a therapist and an interpreter working in the refugee sector. The writers reflect upon how therapists can manage some of the complex dynamics that can occur in the triadic relationship and explore how the presence of an interpreter can bring additional psychological benefits to clients.

This book is essential reading for therapists working in cross-cultural settings, as well as the organizations in which they work.

Reviews for Working with Interpreters in Psychological Therapy: The Right To Be Understood

""" This highly practical guide for therapists and interpreters provides a timely set of tips and guidelines based on years of experience delivering interpreter-mediated therapy. It addresses the needs and the anxieties of therapists and interpreters working together for the best possible outcomes for clients. The authors challenge the myth that interpreter- mediated therapy involves a loss and a reduction in emotional connection and depth. They provide significant examples from their own model of collaborative practice which has enhanced their ability to relate, provide psychological safety and containment and reach clients who are in great distress. This book is essential reading for any practitioner who wants to ensure that their practice is inclusive of multilingual populations and that it is delivered on the principles of linguistic justice."" Dr Beverley Costa, CEO and Clinical Director of Mothertongue multi-ethnic counselling service www.mothertongue.org.uk"
