About the Event

Shame can have a profound and complex impact on clients who have experienced trauma. It often exacerbates the distress caused by trauma and can impede the healing process. As such, addressing the role that shame plays in a client’s trauma and recovery process is a critical aspect of therapy. Internalized feelings of self-blame and guilt can distort self-image and self-esteem. This can lead to a pervasive sense of unworthiness, self-sabotaging, avoidance behaviors, and a belief that one is undeserving of a better life. In this presentation, Katelyn Baxter-Musser, LCSW will provide you with clinical skills and practical strategies to recognize the presence of shame and provide clients with tools to reduce shame and build resilience. During this presentation clinicians will also review the importance of self-care and maintaining their own well-being while working in this challenging field.

This is a live online event. It will be conducted via Zoom Webinar.
