Working in a high-stress career field can lead to feelings of burnout, apathy, and symptoms of vicarious trauma. A high-stress environment often misleads a person into thinking, "I am okay, and I can handle more." These work environments and career fields can leave one feeling isolated and unable to share or relate to those in their inner circles outside of work. Finding the balance to work and outside life is key to the health of any staff in the field. Many are called to help others, but we need our self-care, also. I am a trauma-informed care specialist.
I focus on coping with trauma and the aftermath of vicarious/secondary trauma. I have over 15 years of working with substance abuse, recovery, and changing thought patterns to cope with daily life, regular stressors, and preparing for uncomfortable situations.
The connection between therapist and client is vital to growth and healing for the client. I create a safe therapeutic holding tank for whatever is explored during our time together. I look at the mind like a duffle bag that is over full, and the zipper cannot close. I can help sort the contents and allow more space and reduce the weight on your shoulder.
