Preventing compassion fatigue and secondary trauma are an important part of wellness and in being trauma-informed. When we share all of the specific and sordid details in the re-telling of our day and our clients' experiences, to others, not only are we actively engaging in the traumatic material again, but we are also passing that traumatic material along to those we tell. Please join this presentation to learn about low-impact debriefing practices, safe and productive ways to debrief, and how we can mitigate other's secondary trauma when we process difficult experiences.
