“Fascinating training, very relevant, really got me thinking about how to work more proactively with an interpreter and include them in the relationship/session for better outcomes all round.”

“Katherine is very personable and down to earth and her delivery style is both interesting and engaging. Training with her is incredibly worthwhile and always a valuable and valued use of time.”

“I feel better equipped to manage my own feelings and mental health when supporting someone who has experienced trauma.”

“As a mentor about to start the program I can now understand more the effect of the trauma encountered by my mentee and feel better equipped to approach my role in a considered way.”
