Join us for an insightful session designed to support helping professionals in recognizing, understanding, and addressing compassion fatigue (CF). Together, we’ll explore what CF is, identify its signs and symptoms, and examine how systems and structures can contribute to it. Participants will have the opportunity to reflect on personal experiences, normalize the emotional impact of caregiving roles, and practice practical self‑care strategies to reduce CF and prevent burnout.
The session will also include simple mindfulness activities you can use both at work and at home to stay grounded, healthy, and resilient.
