Vicarious Trauma and Self Care

JWI’s National Alliance to End Domestic Abuse is hosting a webinar, Vicarious Trauma and Self Care. It’s being offered December 19th from noon-1:30pm ET. Since this is a topic we need to talk about much more and there aren’t a lot of webinars with this focus I would encourage you to consider registering.

From the site:

Mary Jo Barrett and Dr. Linda Stone Fish, co-authors of the recently published “Treating Complex Trauma: A Relational Blueprint for Collaboration and Change,” will discuss the causes of vicarious trauma, considering the process through which service providers take on client trauma and develop burn-out and compassion fatigue. The webinar provides strategies for self care using the Collaborative Change Model.
