SUMMARY:Healing the Healers: Creating Happy\, Healthy Healers and a Happy\, Healthy Workforce 
DESCRIPTION:Virtual\, On-Demand Workshop \n\n\n\nFeeling stressed? … Burnt-out? … Overworked? \n\n\n\nThere is a saying: “You can’t pour from an empty cup…” If you consider yourself a healer or helper and you constantly GIVE – now it is your time to TAKE! Refill your cup now. \n\n\n\n We care about you! \n\n\n\nThis 4-hour training is designed to address the stress and various challenges faced by helpers and healers in the medical\, mental\, and behavioral health professions. The training teaches self-care and resilience building strategies\, particularly important as helpers and healers during the COVID-19 crisis showed alarming rates of anxiety\, depression\, PTSD\, and even suicide. Unfortunately\, the impact is expected to worsen once the crisis is over as an aftermath of collective trauma. \n\n\n\nBurnout is defined as a long-term reaction to occupational stress which involves\, particularly\, the helping professions. The burnout epidemic is detrimental to client care and may exacerbate the mental health professionals shortage we are experiencing. Burnout can be caused by secondary trauma\, compassion fatigue\, stress or moral injury. According to several studies\, it appears that up to 67% of mental health workers may be experiencing high levels of burnout\, with the significant impact of COVID yet to be determined. \n\n\n\nThe pandemic has impacted mental health on a broad scale. Leading mental health researchers and professionals anticipated an ‘echo pandemic’ after the physical pandemic passed\, and we are seeing increased incidences of depression\, anxiety\, and suicide\, escalating the demand for healers and helpers who are supported and mentally healthy themselves to serve our communities . \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nLearning Objectives Include: \n\n\n\n\nDefining the Role of a Healer/ Helper\n\n\n\nTypes and Causes of Stress\n\n\n\nBiology and Physiology of Stress\n\n\n\nExploring ACEs & Their Relationship to Stress and Well-Being\n\n\n\nImpacts of Stress\n\nBurnout\n\n\n\nVicarious Trauma\n\n\n\nCompassion Fatigue\n\n\n\nChallenges Faced by Specific Groups of Helpers/Healers\n\n\n\n\n\nCOVID-19 and the Impact on Helpers/Healers\n\n\n\nSelf-Care & Resilience Building\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nCenter for Child Counseling is approved through the Florida Board of Licensed Clinical Social Workers\, Licensed Marriage & Family Therapists\, and Licensed Mental Health Providers #50-11511.

SUMMARY:ACEs\, Trauma\, and Toxic Stress
DESCRIPTION:Online\, On-Demand Workshop \n\n\n\nToxic Stress and Becoming Trauma-Informed \n\n\n\nIn the absence of protective relationships\, toxic stress in childhood impacts an individual’s well-being across the lifetime. The ACE (Adverse Childhood Experiences) Study\, one of the largest studies conducted to assess the association between childhood maltreatment\, later-life health and well-being\, is highlighted.  \n\n\n\nThis workshop provides an overview of the ACE study\, Trauma\, Toxic Stress and the impact on health. Resilience and building a trauma-informed approach is also explored. \n\n\n\nThis ACEs\, Trauma\, and Toxic Stress Workshop is appropriate for teachers\, caregivers\, professionals\, and anyone who is interested in learning more about how adverse childhood experiences impact children…and what we can all do to foster resilience throughout the lifespan. By changing our perspective and recognizing that a child’s behavior may be fueled by a feeling they are not able to manage\, we are able to build the foundation to help a child that has been affected by ACEs\, trauma\, or toxic stress. \n\n\n\nWorkshop Participants Will Learn: \n\n\n\n\nAbout the ACE study\, including the ACE Pyramid which provides the conceptual framework for the study;\n\n\n\nOutcome and findings of the ACE study;\n\n\n\nDefinition of toxic stress and its impact on the developing brain;\n\n\n\nImpact of early adversity on lifelong health – emotional and physical;\n\n\n\nHow resilience trumps ACEs; and\n\n\n\nThe importance of creating trauma-informed and resilience-building practices based on the findings of the ACEs research.\n\n\n\n\nCost: $20 (add $10 to receive 1.5 CEUs)
