Reducing Secondary Traumatic Stress
Skills for Sustaining a Career in the Helping Professions
About this book
The second edition of Reducing Secondary Traumatic Stress expands the five evidence-informed CE-CERT practices for supporting emotional well-being in workers exposed to the effects of secondary trauma. Adding new insights, additional research support, and fresh examples, the conversational tone makes this edition eminently readable and especially useful.
Not only does the book provide helping professionals with a portfolio of skills that support emotion regulation and recovery from secondary trauma exposure, it also enhances the experience of the helping encounter. Each chapter presents evidence-informed skills that allow readers to regulate distressing emotions and foster increased empathy for those suffering from trauma. Reducing Secondary Traumatic Stress goes beyond the usual discussion of burnout to talk in specific terms about what we do about the very real stress that is produced by this work.
