Produktbeschreibung

A guide to assist human service workers- such as those working as therapists, social workers and counsellors- in maintaining their self- care and professional effectiveness when stress and trauma play a key factor in their everyday working lives.

Including accounts from clinical psychologists, therapists, counsellors and social workers, this book creates a narrative on stress and trauma from the human service worker perspective. With discussions on risk and resilience, compassion fatigue and vicarious traumatisation, readers are introduced to the theories and practical applications of developing a professional model for maintaining wellbeing and self-care in their work.
