This virtual training is being sponsored by the HHSC Substance Use Disorders (SUD) Programs. SUD contractors have priority for this training.

We are called to the helping profession due to our own experience with addiction,trauma, and other difficult life circumstances. In this field, we are encouraged to practice self-care, but not often encouraged to take a deeper look at what comprises “wellness” and what gets in the way. Now more than ever, we must investigate our own wellness so we can continue to support our clients. This is not a fluffy self-care seminar, but rather a call to action designed to challenge participants to step into their own healing with courage. In order to thrive as a helping professional, it's crucial we shine a light on what really matters when it comes to caring for ourselves and the barriers that get in the way of being our best selves. This seminar will invite participants to reflect on their own self-care, their relationship to the larger socio-political landscape, and how each of these areas impact the people we work with.

Learning Objectives:

 ●  Participants will differentially define burnout, compassion fatigue, rust-out, and vicarious trauma.

● Participants will explain the eight areas of wellness and how they support a healthy helping professional.

● Participants will define the components of self-compassion and apply them to a personal wellness practice.
