In this article, we present research findings on the interprofessional collaboration (IP) experience of social workers in New Brunswick (NB). This qualitative research is rooted in an interpretative-comprehensive paradigm and seeks to better understand the presence of emotions in IP collaboration. Participants in this study are social workers (n=21) active in multiple practice settings. Semi-structured interviews and field notes were used for data collection. The results presented in this article highlight emerging themes of the study, namely the emotions experienced by social workers when conducting interventions in a collaborative context (emotions related to the situations encountered by service users, emotions associated with the intervention process and emotions emerging from the collaborative experience) as well as strategies for managing these emotions. In conclusion, we present some points for discussion and further reflection with reference to the place of emotions in collaborative intervention and the training of future professionals in IP collaboration.
