As a psychotherapist, your career in helping people can be complex, challenging, and isolating at times.
No doubt, assisting others in going through their difficulties is a rewarding profession. However, psychotherapists are humans after all, and may face personal distress from time to time.
How can psychotherapists ensure that we remain in our best possible selves to serve people in need?
In this complimentary online talk, you will discover:
- Professional ethics as a psychotherapist
- When is it appropriate to take time away from seeing clients
- How to practice self-care and process difficult emotions
