February Webinars: Helping the Helping Professional; and Preventing Relapse

January 27, 2020 NAADAC Free Webinars in February The Wounded Healer: Helping the Helping Professional Wednesday, February 12, 2020 @ 3-4:30pm ET (2CT/1MT/12PT) Description: Burnout, compassion fatigue, and vicarious trauma are landmines in the field of addiction work. Many of us struggle with work demands, familial expectations, and the desire for a fulfilling personal life. Our supervisors remind us of self-care, but who has the energy to add one more task to a stressful day? In order to thrive in this field, it’s crucial we shine a light on what really matters when it comes to caring for ourselves and the barriers that get in the way of being our best selves. This experiential workshop will differentially define burnout, compassion fatigue, and vicarious trauma; provide a deep understanding of self-compassion; and support participants in evaluating crucial components of their individual self-care plan to support the healthiest version of themselves.

Cultivating Greater Meaning and Purpose to Prevent Relapse Wednesday, February 26, 2020 @ 3-4:00pm ET (2CT/1MT/12PT) Description: Many who find themselves established in recovery are left with a lingering, internal void that represents a lack of meaning or sense of purpose in life. This lack of meaning or purpose can be a constant threat to one’s recovery. With the right guidance, anyone can learn to uncover their purpose and find a greater sense of meaning, healthy passions, and natural sources of joy. This presentation will walk participants through a process of uncovering their purpose and learning to pursue activities that will provide the most meaning and personal fulfillment. This presentation is designed for experiential learning and will empower participants to use this work in their personal life and with clients in recovery.
