[humanser] Professional Self-Care Resource

[Susan Tabor]

Hi, Steve:

Thanks for this! I was at a spirituality and social work conference a few
years ago where the phenomennon of secondary truma was discussed; secondary
trauma is the trauma we experience while working with others and their
problems and trauma that may have been a part of those interactions as well.
Having that named was incredibly helpful to me, and helped me uncover and
work through some feelings I had about some work with some of my clients.
Thanks again for sharing this resource.
All the Best,
Susan

Hi everyone,
Today, I had an opportunity to sit in on a Professional Self-Care training
that my employer offered to us. As a front line staff person who gets the
brunt of what our clientele are dealing with, this was a nice opportunity to
learn more about how to take care of ourselves.  I just want to pass this
along as I myself, found this quite interesting and helpful.
