Program Description:

The COVID 19 pandemic has had psychological and social consequences globally. It has been a uniquely different worldwide traumatic event that is, in many ways, shared by clients and therapists alike.

We have known about the hazards of our profession and the resulting emotional residue of working with other people’s distress and trauma. At this time we have to acknowledge that we too are experiencing the distress and trauma along with them. The emotional demands of our work have changed in unique ways necessitating a different and renewed focus on self-care.

Dr. Bhatia will shed light on the demands, vulnerabilities, and challenges in our work and share diverse ways of attending to our own emotional, psychological and professional needs. Replenishing ourselves personally and professionally is as an ethical responsibility we all share.

Goals & Objectives:

At the conclusion of this workshop, participants will be able to:

  • Describe the differences between compassion fatigue, secondary trauma and burnout and recognize the impact of each of these on their clinical practice.

  • Design a self-care plan to reduce the impact of compassion fatigue, secondary trauma and burnout on their clinical practice.
