Self-Care for Therapists — Training Overview

This two day-day training is designed for therapists to learn self-care tools necessary in counteracting the challenges around Compassion Fatigue, Vicarious Trauma, and burnout that come from working with trauma. Through out this workshop, therapists will identify their strengths and vulnerabilities in regard to self-care in supporting their health and resiliency within their lives and professions. Participants will engage in a variety of self-care exercises that will include pre-session, mid- session and post- session practices. These concepts and skills will be explored didactically as well as experientially. Therapists will leave this workshop with a personalized self-care plan and be able to put these skills into practice immediately.

Learning Objectives:

• Recognize the basic signs of Compassion Fatigue (CF) and Vicarious Trauma (VT).
• Assess if they are suffering for CF or VT.
• Identify and demonstrate one or more self-care exercises for beginning psychotherapy sessions.
• Identify and demonstrate one or more self-care exercises to utilize during the middle of psychotherapy sessions.
• Identify and practice one or more self-care exercises to engage at the end of psychotherapy sessions.
• Identify a personalized and sustainable self –care plan to support their work as a therapist.
