About this Event
Training - Burn-out & Vicarious Trauma (NCPS Quality Checked)
Any counsellor, psychotherapist, hypnotherapist, or mental health professional who works with trauma is potentially at risk of burn-out, secondary traumatic stress, compassion fatigue and vicarious trauma. We will explore in this training through various questionnaires and conversations how you are doing and what might be potential risk indicators related to your work.
More importantly, we will look at 9 keys as to how you can increase your emotional safety and protect yourself better from vicarious trauma, burn-out, compassion fatigue and secondary traumatic stress:
1. Self-awareness
2. Safety Techniques
3. Training & TIS
4. Managing your empathy
5. Mirror – unmirror
6. Change your mindset
7. Don’t visualise trauma
8. Healthy boundaries
9. Recovery
You will be given a chance to practice with these keys, so that you can figure out what works best for you. We are all wired a little differently, so we need to create a plan that works for us. This training is experiential in nature: You will have the chance to discuss and practice with some of the things we will be covering. The training is suitable for both student and qualified counsellors, psychotherapists, social workers, psychologists, support workers, GP's, psychiatrists, hypnotherapists, as well as any other mental health professional who works with trauma or wants to work with traumatised clients.
This Training Day can be taken on its own, or as the 4th training day as part of the NCPS Quality Checked 10-day Foundation Diploma - Therapeutic Safety in Trauma. It is taught face-to-face in Southend-on-Sea.
