Answers to Burnout for Yourself and Your Clients (4 CE credits)

Presented by Dr. Cynthia Sholes, PhD 4 CEUs for LMFTs, LPCCs, LEPs and/or LCSWs About the Presentation
 In 2021, over 47 million Americans voluntarily quit their jobs in what has been called “The Great Resignation.” Many of them were essential, frontline workers who cared so much that they were driven past their limits. Other “non-essential” workers, involuntarily lost their jobs in 2020 due to the shutdowns of the pandemic. Some are turning to mental health professionals to help them with the effects of their burnout and the resulting frustration, anxiety, lack of motivation, and hopelessness that often comes from needing something you don’t really want. In this workshop, you will learn how you can identify the signs of burnout in yourself and your clients before it leads to self-sabotaging behaviors. You will learn about neuroscience based tools to help your clients get off the burnout path and find authentic feelings of purpose without the automatic stress habits that hijack the mind. Learning Objectives 1. Identify the 3 hallmarks of burnout as they may be presented by your client. 2. Distinguish the 3 types of Burnout and the most common causes of each. 3. Understand the mental, emotional and physical cycle of burnout and how to intervene at any of those points. 4. Practice a fast-acting somatic technique that stops stress that leads to burnout. 5. Understand a novel long term solution that extinguishes ongoing stress patterns that keep the burnout cycle going.
