Therapists in the abyss: Vicarious trauma

This is the first of an intermittent series of therapists sharing their abyss stories.  Samantha was a newly minted therapist just out of her MSW program, full of hope and excitement for her new career, when she met a client whose horrific trauma story and rapid disappearance from therapy haunted her for years.  Dr. H and Samantha explore how she was able to eventually move from the grief and regret of this vicarious traumatization to a place of acceptance and self-compassion. A heads up— this story contains a description of a sexual assault. Dr. H / Back from the Abysshttps://www.craigheacockmd.comSupport the show
