What is Secondary Traumatic Stress and why do I need to know about it?

Although our trauma work is immeasurably rewarding, the psychological and personal impacts of this work can leave us feeling depleted, isolated and even traumatised ourselves.

Our profession expects that we can bear witness to a client's trauma narrative with objectivity and professional distance at all times, never allowing it to personally effect us.

Paradoxically, our capacity to remain 'bigger, better, wiser, stronger' than our clients relies on us offering unconditional positive regard through empathy and a strong therapeutic alliance with these same clients. 

Most damaging of all, any sign of emotional distress in a practitioner is often viewed as a lack in professional fortitude...a belief we, as trauma support practitioners, often internalise, viewing ourselves as weak or lacking if we admit to feeling emotionally or psychologically impacted on by our work. 

We can forget that, despite all of our training, we are, in fact, working extremely hard to suppress our innate psychological responses to distress.  This creates significant emotional and physical strain.

Secondary Traumatic Stress, also known as Vicarious Trauma, develops as a result of exhausting our internal resources to such a point that we have difficulty ridding ourselves of the images and experiences shared by our traumatised clients.

Do you recognise any of these signs in yourself?

  • emotional exhaustion
  • negative self-evaluation
  • engagement in 'dark' humour
  • negative beliefs about the world
  • feelings of hopelessness in your role
  • intrusive thoughts or images
  • diminished sense of safety, trust or esteem 
  • isolation or distancing from others
  • feelings of anxiety or irritability around clients
  • increase in 'unhealthy' coping strategies
  • feeling victimised by others

Fuel Your Fire: Resilience and Wellbeing for Trauma Support Practitioners

The area of emotional and psychological risk to oneself when working within the area of trauma has been well-researched over recent years.

It has been consistently identified that continued professional development and a commitment to honest self-reflection provide safeguards against the impacts of the burnout syndrome.

Designed specifically for trauma support practitioners, Fuel Your Fire condenses the core teachings from my most popular professional-development workshops into a comprehensive 8-module program. Drawing on the knowledge of some of the leaders in the fields of trauma, mindfulness and wellness, this professionally facilitated self-directed program explores deeply the processes of;

  •  reconnecting with your WHY— your passion for your work,
  • identifying and overcoming potential triggers for secondary traumatic stress, and
  • crafting robust strategies to uphold your professional and personal wellbeing 

Delivered by downloadable modules and supported by weekly coaching calls, you will gain exclusive access to insights derived from decades of research and collaboration, typically only available to workshop participants.

Course Modules

Go from burning-out to invigorated in 8 weeks...

Module 1 - Your WHY

Remembering that original motivating factor that brought you into this role, this first week will focus on reconnecting to your reason, your motivation and your passion.

Module 2 - Finding Balance

Here we take a deep dive into some of the emotional and psychological effects of this work and consider areas of our lives that may need attention. kkj

Module 3 - You matter too

This week we will focus on us! What keeps us grounded, connected and well. We will practice what we preach by reflecting on our own needs and self-care.kj

Module 4 - Beneath the surface

We all hold beliefs that can both motivate and hinder us. This week we will identify some of those limiting beliefs, and develop ways to challenge and rise above them.

Module 5 - No-one is an island

Although we may readily give to those we serve, here we look at who can give to us. We will identify our support networks, and practice help-seeking and vulnerability.

Module 6 - There is Only Now

Drawing on teachings from others in the field, we turn to mindfulness and presence to create our own strategies for regaining balance and calm in times of overwhelm.

Module 7 - Only 3 choices

Through examination of our own circles of control, this week explores the only 3 choices we ever have; accept, change, or leave, and ways to identify the difference.

Module 8 - Looking up

Our final week is all about wins! Deeply connecting to the many small successes that we often overlook, and celebrating each and every one.

faq

Do I need any prior knowledge to engage in Fuel Your Fire?

As this course is designed for professional trauma workers, you already bring a depth of knowledge and experience with you.  There are no additional pre-requisites for engaging in Fuel Your Fire.  Just a desire to increase your self-awareness and a readiness to dig deep!

How long does the program last for?

Fuel Your Fire is an 8 module program, each module taking between 1-2 hours to complete and supported by a 45minute coaching call. As Fuel Your Fire is self-paced there is no set timeframe for completion, however it is recommended that you commit to a module a week (less than 15minutes a day) in order to maintain momentum and ensure best results.      

Do I have to complete all of the modules?

You ultimately have the freedom to complete only the modules you find most relevant. However, the program is delivered weekly and designed as a comprehensive 8 module program with each module building on the learning and reflections from the last.  To get the most out of the program it is suggested that each module is completed fully before moving onto the next.  

How do the coaching calls work?

Once you have enrolled, you will receive an email where you can book in an initial 20minute welcome call.  During this welcome call, I will answer any questions you have and we will schedule the coaching calls for the remainder of the program. Each coaching call will be based on the learnings from that week's module and there is provision at the end of each module to write down any questions or reflections that you would like to discuss at your coaching call.

How do i know that this is right for me?

If you are still unsure about whether to enrol in Fuel Your Fire, below are some questions you may find helpful.

Are you;

  • Ready to challenge yourself and explore new ways of experiencing your world? (that's where those transformative Aha! moments come from...)
  • Committed to 'doing the work' and digging deep to discover your genuine change points?
  • Willing to engage in coaching with openness and self-reflection?
  • Excited by the knowledge that you will be fully supported and will rediscover your WHY!?
  • Hoping for a 'quick fix' or a believer that all current issues are external to you? (sorry....this workshop is likely to be a little too confronting for you)
  • Someone who believes that self-reflection or naive curiosity of your own internal world is unnecessary (unfortunately, our internal world is all we can control...and the entire focus of this program.)

Still unsure?  Book a FREE 20 minute discovery call with Zera who can answer any questions to help you decide.
