Description:
This two-hour workshop provides information on several ways trauma can affect providers and care-givers: primary trauma, secondary trauma, vicarious trauma, compassion fatigue, and burnout. With this in mind, we then explore a model for developing multiple levels of self-care to help relieve the effects of vicarious trauma.
Learning Objectives:
1. Distinguish between the different types of trauma and understand where they overlap.
2. Learn the Traffic Light model of self-care and identify ways to incorporate self-care into your regular routine.
3. Create an action plan to incorporate at least one change toward better self-care.
Trainer
After spending many years helping people assess their challenges, improve their skills, and reach their goals in corporate settings, Beverly now integrates this expertise with her current education in mind-body medicine. As a therapist and life coach, she sees her role as one of facilitator and guide. She provides an environment that is gentle and safe for exploration and discovery, while incorporating the qualities of awareness, creativity, spirituality, discipline, humor, and resilience. The foundation for her strengths-based, whole-person perspective about health and well-being is a Masters Degree in Counseling Psychology from John F. Kennedy University with a specialization in Body Oriented (Somatic) Psychotherapy. She is currently completing a PhD in Mind-body Medicine at Saybrook University, which includes a specialization in Integrative Mental Health (anticipated 2018). In addition to seeing clients in her private practice, Beverly is a volunteer clinician for the First Responders Support Network (FRSN) (http://frsn.org/) and West Coast Post-Trauma Retreat (WCPR).
