From Vicarious Impact to Resilience – Looking After Your Well-Being as a Helper

The work of helping others through difficult experiences can be both meaningful and challenging. Those in trauma-exposed roles often face what is known as vicarious impact, the effect that comes from witnessing or supporting others through trauma. Recognizing and addressing this impact is an important part of maintaining long-term wellness.

The Crisis & Trauma Resource Institute (CTRI) is hosting a free webinar titled From Vicarious Impact to Resilience – Looking After Your Well-Being as a Helper. Led by Joddie Walker, CTRI’s Clinical Director, the session will explore:

• How vicarious trauma influences well-being when supporting others

• Vulnerabilities and strengths to be mindful of in a helping role

• The connection between empathy, vicarious trauma, and resilience

• Four practical steps for transforming vicarious impact into resilience

The webinar also includes a live Q&A, allowing participants to ask questions and engage directly with CTRI trainers.
