Fostering resilience: Vicarious trauma and burnout management
Addressing vicarious trauma and burnout is essential for maintaining a healthy, resilient workplace team. Through psychological education, Lauren aims to deepen the team’s understanding of these challenges and ability to recognise the signs and effects of vicarious trauma and burnout. By creating an environment where individuals feel supported in sharing their experiences and challenges, group clinical supervision encourages a unified approach to manage and reduce the impact of these occupational hazards.
Ensuring career and vocational longevity in the face of vicarious trauma and burnout involves a proactive approach to symptom management, impact mitigation, and recovery planning. Lauren works together with teams to develop tailored strategies that address current areas of collective risk and a shared understanding of impacts through trauma-informed clinical supervision.
Beyond words: Integrating creative practices into trauma informed supervision
Part of what makes Lauren’s clinical group supervision sessions so effective is the embrace of play and creativity, tailored to address the unique needs of those working with trauma. Incorporating creative activities such as drawing, modelling with plasticine, storytelling and interpretation serves a dual purpose:
- It activates the creative parts of the brain, offering a soothing counterbalance to the emotional and psychological demands of working with trauma material in supervision.
- These creative outlets help participants remain grounded and fully present, by engaging the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex in the brain. This activation significantly enhances engagement in the supervision process.
This approach not only bolsters mental and emotional well-being but also enriches the learning environment, making it more dynamic and effective for participants. This option is currently only available for face-to-face services.
