Online | Heal the Healer: Recognizing Overwhelm & Burnout
Instructor: Honor Medina, LMFT
Description: Caring for children and families who have experienced trauma is rewarding but can also be emotionally taxing to our well‐being (secondary trauma). Attendees will explore the stages of overwhelm and burnout, identify symptoms to watch out for, and learn how to adjust boundaries and self‐care to mitigate the potential impact of secondary trauma. Attendees will be able to, differentiate between overwhelm and stages of burnout, identify risk factors for secondary trauma, identify protective/mitigating factors related to secondary trauma, and lastly, develop their own conscious oversight of current stress symptoms, risk factors, protective factors, and coping tools.
