Caring in Hard Times: Sustaining Counselor Resilience
Date: Friday, March 20
Time: 10:15–11:30 AM (CET – Prague Time)
Workshop Description
In times of heightened uncertainty and crisis, school counselors often serve as the emotional anchors of their communities. However, the sustained provision of trauma-informed care, particularly during collective crises, places counselors at heightened risk for compassion fatigue. This session focuses on preserving one’s own psychological and physiological well-being when supporting others. By leveraging the power of community, Noa Kanter will lead participants in sharing strategies to regulate their own stress responses, establish sustainable professional boundaries, and cultivate personal resilience.
