Title: Improving Cultural and Self-Awareness in Counseling Education Curriculum

Description: This session is both process and solution oriented and will not only provide participants with knowledge but also time to process content and practice adaptive tools to mitigate symptoms of burnout and/or stress in real time. Participants will receive brief psychoeducation on the body’s alarm system and stress responses as well as burnout, its signs, symptoms, stages, and overall impacts. Additionally, facilitators will support participants in learning to differentiate between a stress response vs symptoms of burnout, discuss grounding practices, learn tools to manage burnout through self-awareness and self-compassion, and discuss applying ethics in action within their professional practice.

Objectives:

1. Recognize and differentiate between personal signs of burnout vs stress/trauma responses and understand how these impact presence, decision-making, and effectiveness in professional roles and relationships.
2. Practice evidence-based strategies to manage stress, regulate your nervous system, and cultivate sustainable resilience as a supervisor or educator.
3. Reflect on ethical implications of burnout and impairment in your own work, and identify steps to maintain competence and model wellness for supervisees and trainees.
