Mental Health Partnerships Presents: An interactive workshop designed specifically for individuals in helping professions. Through images, demonstrations, and hands-on exercises, this dynamic session will showcase strategies for rewiring and rebuilding the brain.
Our focus will be on techniques to aid in recovery and also focus on the prevention of the effects of both Vicarious and Insidious Trauma. We will consider the different causes of vicarious trauma in peer supporters and the strategies that agencies can employ to prevent and minimize the exposure and effects of vicarious trauma.
Participants will learn practical methods for supporting peers after exposure to vicarious trauma or crisis and develop skills for responding effectively.
