In this workshop we will explore what Shame is, how to spot it, and how many in the TA community have written about working with Shame (Erskine, 1994; Lee, 2020; 2018; Little, 1999). We will go on to consider how we can work and talk with our clients about shame. Throughout this workshop we will be considering practical ways of working with shame. The aim of this training is to give an overview of how to engage with the topic of Shame with our clients, and to support the participants with tools for how to be effective in ‘treating’ Shame.
