Social Workers and helping professionals are often exposed to the emotional weight of others’ trauma, which can lead to secondary trauma, burnout, and compassion fatigue. Resilience in Practice is an interactive CEU training designed to help professionals recognize signs of secondary trauma, understanding it’s impact, and implement practical strategies to build personal and professional resilience.
Participants will explore evidence-based approaches to burnout, enhance self-care, and maintain effectiveness in their roles.
