Vicarious Trauma

This course has no current classes. Please the waiting list.

Vicarious Trauma training provides you with the knowledge, skills and tools to maintain healthy boundaries that protect your own mental health and wellbeing. The cost of caring can be significant. We deal with people in difficult situations, some days on the worst day of their life. When dealing with people who have experienced trauma, or when working with difficult, emotional, sensitive or potentially traumatic material and information we vicariously experience that trauma. We will teach you the concept of VT and techniques for long term resilience. Our trainer David Bradford has spent 31 years in the Justice Health and Child Protection sectors and has served 5 years on the Child Death Review Committee in Qld, worked in Maximum security Prisons and managers Child Protection Area Offices. His insights will help you build strategies for resilience.
