Burnout, Cynicism & Compassion Fatigue: Remaining Human in Emotionally Demanding Work
Human service work is deeply meaningful—but it can also be emotionally exhausting.
Burnout doesn't happen because people stop caring. It often happens because they've cared deeply for too long without enough support, recovery, or sustainable practices.
This full-day workshop helps participants better understand burnout, compassion fatigue, and secondary traumatic stress while providing practical tools to maintain their well-being without sacrificing the quality of care they provide.
Together, we'll explore how to remain compassionate, effective, and connected to the work we love—even during the most challenging seasons.
Topics Include:
• Burnout, compassion fatigue, and secondary trauma
• Recognizing early warning signs
• Emotional regulation and resilience
• Boundaries that actually work
• Stress management strategies
• Reconnecting with purpose
• Sustainable helping practices
• Individual and organizational wellness
Perfect for anyone working in helping professions who wants practical tools—not just self-care clichés.
