Therapist Self-care Post-COVID: Conversations with a Wounded Healer

CE Hours 3

About this course

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. Given our current state of pandemic, professionals are currently experiencing the same trauma as our clients. Now more than ever, we must investigate our own wellness so we can continue to support our clients. Professionals are expected to know the latest evidence-based tools to support clients, but are we practicing what we preach? 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 in this field, 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 highlight SAMHSA’s Wellness Initiative “Eight Areas of Wellness” along with Kristin Neff’s components of self-compassion. Participants will be challenged to audit their own practices to align their professional and personal selves.

Learning Objectives

  • Explain the eight areas of wellness and their application to themselves as professionals.
  • Analyze current self-care strategies and create an individualized plan to decrease stress and increase resilience while working in the mental and behavioral health field.
  • Explain the components of self-compassion and demonstrate an understanding of tools to enhance self-compassion practices.
