What you MUST know about Vicarious Trauma - a podcast by Catherine, LCSW
from 2020-03-30T13:59:55
This week I sat down with Lesly Rodriguez to explore about her very personal story of vicarious trauma.
How her work environment was traumatic, how she knew it was happening, and her journey to overcome it.
She shares exactly what it looks like, gives real stories of her work with people who have mental illness, and actionable things you can do now if this is also your experience and to help someone.
This is a must-know for every competent social worker. We must know how to identify vicarious trauma, work through it, and help others through this experience too.
