Duration: 120 minutes
"Tread with Care: Trauma-Informed Interviewing for Writers" is an experiential workshop led by Dr Ahona Guha, a clinical and forensic psychologist, trauma expert, and author. Tailored for writers, journalists, and interviewers, this workshop empowers participants by providing a nuanced understanding of trauma and the trauma-informed care principles required to conduct interviews sensitively. Attendees learn to navigate delicate narratives with empathy and respect and use practical interviewing strategies to plan interviews and ensure both interviewer and interviewee feel supported throughout the process. With a blend of didactic and experiential learning, Dr Guha draws on her extensive experience with trauma treatment and clinical interviewing to support attendees to build solid, safe, respectful and ethical interviewing practises for the writers’ festival stage, and beyond.
