Description
Do you feel boredom and impatience when working with people? Are you unfocused, tired during therapy, secretly checking the time? Do you feel like you've heard the same thing many times before? Are your patients not improving? Do you feel relieved when a client cancels a meeting? Then you might be experiencing compassion fatigue. The author defines how this phenomenon differs from burnout, depression, and secondary traumatization, and offers psychologists and therapists, as well as social and educational workers, ways to cope with such fatigue. She examines the issue from the perspective of ego state therapy and describes what it means when the helping individual is wounded or powerless. The author considers working on oneself to be the most important and presents a whole range of methods and techniques for this purpose. She offers case studies, various exercises, and guidelines for therapeutic practice with clients and groups.
