Reducing Secondary Traumatic Stress presents a model for supporting emotional well-being in workers who are exposed to the effects of secondary trauma. The book provides helping professionals with a portfolio of skills that supports emotion regulation and recovery from secondary trauma exposure and also that enhances the experience of the helping encounter. Each chapter presents evidence-informed skills that allow readers to regulate distressing emotions and to foster increased empathy for those suffering from trauma. Reducing Secondary Traumatic Stress goes beyond the usual discussion of burnout to talk in specific terms about what we do about the very real stress that is produced by this work.

    This book was recommended to me by my therapist as I am a upcoming therapist in training. He told me that it completely reframed how he works with clients and wishes it was part of grad school curriculum. Boy was he right! I have gleaned so many important insights for reading this book. The author succinctly describes the barriers to the counselor experiencing release and real joy/peace while in the thick of trauma work. The life of a metal health professional working regularly with trauma does not have no always end in burn out, self-care only outside of the office building, and losing the passion/energy of helping others. There is another way and it is described in this book. I will be taking many helpful tools with me into my practice as a new therapist because of this book.

    I wish I had read this book at the beginning of my career. A research based perspective of preventing and treating burnout. There is a parallel between CE-CERT and use of DBT skills, and it all makes sense! As a clinical social worker for 15 years, working in homes, these are skills I utilized during times of stress without realizing they were skills. Looking forward to implementing this in my work as a supervisor. I also feel incredibly validated by telling my intern that if she learned nothing else from me, she learned to take time for lunch every day. 😂
