Wellness Wednesday: Holiday Wellness

Every year, the holiday season presents a unique set of both joys and challenges. Whether with loved ones or apart, it is important to mindfully incorporate not only physical but emotional wellness into routines. This week, time allowing, try embracing some personal wants and needs that may not be as accessible when surrounded by others. How can you take the time to rest and reconnect, despite any disruptions to typical holiday plans?

Stay safe and well!

WHERE: LIVE WEBINAR
DATE: Friday, December 11, 2020
TIME: 12:00pm-1:00pm

Description:

At our core, counselors want to help. In that process of helping, counselors are exposed to trauma stories that can leave an emotional imprint on the helper. Repeated exposure to these trauma narratives can increase this emotional imprint resulting in vicarious traumatization. Clinical supervision can provide a space for supervisors and supervisees to cooperatively address vicarious trauma, especially if the clinical supervisor is regularly screening for vicarious traumatization with their supervisees.This presentation will provide supervisors with an overview of vicarious trauma, ways to recognize vicarious trauma in supervisees, and a plan that will help support supervisees selfcare as a means to mitigate or prevent vicarious traumatization in counseling.
