Reducing Compassion Fatigue, Secondary Traumatic Stress, and Burnout: A Trauma-Sensitive Workbook

Reducing Compassion Fatigue, Secondary Traumatic Stress, and Burnout addresses the vital questions mental health providers have about self-care and its relationship to clinical practice. Packed with activities, worksheets, and interactive learning tools, the text provides neuro-based and trauma-sensitive recommendations for improving the ways clinicians care for themselves. Each `session' helps clinicians identify their personal self-care needs and arrive at an effective self-care plan that promotes resilience in the face of daily exposure to trauma-inducing situations and reduces the effects of compassion fatigue and burnout. Integrating research with practical applications and best practices, Reducing Compassion Fatigue, Secondary Traumatic Stress, and Burnout is an essential workbook for clinicians and organizations looking to enhance compassionate care.
