Vicarious Trauma Awareness Workshop

Working with individuals who have complex and challenging needs can be deeply rewarding—but it also comes with emotional demands that can impact staff wellbeing. Vicarious trauma, burnout, and compassion fatigue are real risks for professionals in frontline, clinical, and support roles.

Our Vicarious Trauma Awareness Workshop is designed to help staff recognise, understand, and manage the impact of vicarious trauma, ensuring they can continue to provide high-quality care while prioritising their own wellbeing.

Facilitated by Industry Experts

Led by experienced vicarious trauma supervisors, our facilitators bring extensive training and hands-on experience in supporting professionals across forensic, custodial, mental health, and high-risk environments. They have worked closely with staff to navigate the emotional toll of their roles and develop practical, evidence-based strategies to build resilience.
