SHAME The theory base: Too often ignored in social work? Social work student connect webinar 12

[@samusaymanden6797]

I completely agree with you, Siobhan, many social workers do not recognise shame, instead blame the client for not cooperating with them. Not thinking about the feeling of telling a stranger about your private life story.

Yes we really do need to think about it more

A really powerful and courageous sharing of self from Jason and Siobhan that helped anchor and contextualise how invidious shame is in people’s lives (personal and professional); and how this often taboo issue needs to be liberated. Thank you, Both and the wider Student Connect Team, of course (Gerry Skelton, MBE)

Thanks Gerry. It is always a challenge to know how much to share of yourself and I was very nervous, but I am glad it started a conversation!
