This training equips interpreters with practical, body-based tools to manage compassion fatigue and secondary trauma in real time. Participants learn how to regulate their nervous system while actively interpreting, preventing emotional overload, reducing burnout, and improving long-term resilience.
You are trained to translate language. But no one teaches you how to translate what happens inside your own nervous system while you do it. Interpreters are expected to stay neutral, accurate, and emotionally steady while holding intense human material-sometimes trauma, conflict, urgency, or grief-without pausing to process. Over time, the body adapts:
This is not a skill problem, it is a nervous system load problem. This 6-week program is designed to change that. Between Voices is a somatic resilience training for interpreters who want to stay clear, regulated, and present under pressure-and recover fully afterward.
You will learn how to:
| Session 1 | What is Happening in Your Nervous System? | An introduction to how interpreting affects the nervous system and the physiological roots of secondary trauma. Covers how to recognize personal stress responses and catch early signs of overload while still on the job. |
| Session 2 | Regulation Under Active Load | Foundational micro-regulation skills (breath, jaw, and posture) designed to be used during live interpreting without breaking focus or interrupting performance. |
| Session 3 | Emotional Boundaries Without Stopping Work | Internal, body-based boundaries that prevent emotional carryover from one assignment to the next, while staying fully present and engaged with the work. |
| Session 4 | What To Do When You Are Flooded While Interpreting | A structured protocol for responding to nervous system overwhelm (“flooding”) in the moment, using techniques that keep the interpreter functional and reduce escalation. |
| Session 5 | Recovery During Work, Not After Work | Micro-recovery practices applied between assignments to prevent cumulative stress from building up and to reduce long-term burnout. |
| Session 6 | Integration: Your Personal Interpreter Regulation System | A personalized, repeatable system for regulation, recovery, and resilience built to be applied consistently across day-to-day interpreting work. |
