Two part zoom workshop on Wednesday June 1 and Thursday June 2
NOTE: You must attend both evenings to receive a certificate for 3 professional development hours.
Boundaries are essential to practice in the helping professions, as they make caring sustainable, and protect skilled workers from compassion fatigue, vicarious traumatization and burnout. Boundary practice encourages us to consider our own energy and how we’re spending it, and to understand pre-existing patterns of relating that attract us to the helping professions while also making boundary practice more difficult.
In this workshop, participants will learn about the advantages and disadvantages of different patterns of relating, with a view to becoming better stewards of our professional energy, and making our self-care practices more personal and effective. Workers will gain a better understanding of how they feel and think at work relative to how they’re negotiating boundaries with clients and co-workers. Boundary work ensures we’re bringing our best selves to the work we love so much.
As with all online sessions, participants must have their camera on throughout the sessions for verification of attendance.
