This workshop will focus on workplace resilience and self-care for those in the education and/or human services fields, where practitioners are at high risk for experiencing secondary trauma. It will provide an overview of the concept of self-care, including discussions about what self-care is and is not. Participants will complete a self-evaluation to examine their current state of burnout, secondary trauma, and compassion satisfaction. Trigger awareness will also be discussed/analyzed. Information learned will guide participant development of a personalized self-care plan, including practices for sustainability and consistent implementation.
