About this event
Day One: Beyond Burnout: The CE-CERT Model for Secondary Trauma
Workshop Description
6.0 CEUs
Staff retention, burnout and secondary trauma are epidemic for organizations and staff working with exploited and trauma exposed populations. Regrettably the best advice usually offered is: “Do more self-care!” Keeping good staff means more than just ‘surviving’ and ‘not burning-out’. A new evidence-informed model; Components for Enhancing Career Experience and Reducing Trauma (CE-CERT) is a skills-based approach identifying five key clinical practice and supervision skills. In this session, we will also reference the foundational sources of the relevant neuropsychological, social cognitive, anxiety and trauma treatment literature from which they are drawn and explore and apply each skill component. These are the skills we need to make ourselves more resilient to the secondary effects of intense therapy or helping experiences and includes skills for: 1) engaging and “metabolizing” intense affect; 2) decreasing rumination; 3) having conscious oversight of our narrative; 4) reducing emotional labor, and 5) parasympathetic recovery skills to rebalance in the moment. This session is for clinical and direct service level staff and supervisors. Participants will be invited and have opportunity to develop their own personal action plan to help emotionally connect, thrive, and stay in the field.

Day Two for Supervisors: Bringing CE-CERT for Secondary Trauma into Supervision (Supervisors Only)
Workshop Description
3.0 CEUs
Those working with traumatized populations consistently rate stressful administrative and organizational factors as key elements in the development of compassion fatigue. Chief among these risk factors is professional and personal isolation. Consistent and regular supervision helps address the above factors best when it also addresses the stressful impact of the work on the helper. The CE-CERT model discussed in Day One gives all helpers a skills-based toolbox that goes beyond activities of self-care to support front-line helpers and responders with specific ways to strengthen how we emotionally connect and thrive in our work. After day one our hope is that supervisors start activating the CE-CERT skills for their own wellness purposes. Day Two is designed help supervisors synthesize and integrate CE-CERT into group or individual supervision to help supervisees begin to put “practice into practice” as trauma-informed teams and organizations. An important supervisory leadership “practice” responsibility is to create a climate for supervisees to have consistent access to, and assertively insist upon regular opportunities to engage in individual and group reflective supervision while integrating the CE-CERT skills into all levels of supervision.
