“Stressors can become really significant when you have numerous traumatized kids on your caseload or if you have a really complicated family or child that you’re trying to support. And unless you learn to regulate and discharge, you’ll likely take some aspect of it home with you. Over time this will create burnout and “compassion fatigue”; energetically your nervous system will become fried. It’s your job to find ways to find ways to regulate, expand your window of tolerance so that your nervous system can expand to hold the energy in the room and return to a more aligned state.” -Lisa Dion, LPC, RPT-S
