Overview


Studies suggest that community mental health work can be very stressful, and that not addressing these stressors can impact service delivery. This often translates to high turnover rates and programs having to invest in resources to train new staff. This training acknowledges the level of professional stress in this field. Participants will engage in dialogue about personal self-care and organizational issues, such as communication, teamwork, and staff development, that often go unaddressed. This training will also explore common sources of workplace stress and provide strategies for managing and lowering stress levels. Discussions will focus on acknowledging and addressing burnout, compassion fatigue, and vicarious trauma. A special emphasis will be placed on self-care for mental health professionals. Attendees will be offered information to support a renewed sense of purpose and will be better equipped to manage their stress.
