Relational Ethics Development
Professional Wounded Healer: The Ethical Need to Promote Psychological Wellness within Oneself
The COVID-19 pandemic was a time during which many clinicians worked selflessly to be available to their clients who were struggling during the time of isolation. What we have since learned is that the practice of self-care – by those of us in the helping professions – is one of the most important ethical activities that we can engage in. The emotional cost of the work we do is immense; the need for ethical practices that support self-care and self-compassion is equally immense. This workshop will delve into what ethics and self-care looks like for behavioral healthcare (mental health & substance use disorder) professionals. This highly interactive and experiential session will look at ethics and moral injury, vicarious trauma, self-compassion, self-forgiveness, and healing as they relate to professionals working in the trenches.
