from Playful Parenting Podcast · host Andrew Barnett
On this episode of Play Time, we cover vicarious traumatization. Vicarious traumatization is when helping professionals take on some of the trauma and pain of the clients they see as they are empathetically connecting with them to help them heal. We explore why this is a particular difficulty for play therapists, and what play therapists can do to ameliorate the effects of working with individuals with trauma.Ideas regarding post-traumatic play were based on reading Eliana Gil's 'Posttraumatic Play in Children- What Clinicians Need to Know' which is wonderful.
