Secondary trauma is real—and it doesn’t mean you’re “too sensitive.” It means you’ve had enough exposure to other people’s pain that your nervous system starts carrying it too.
I was invited to do this workshop about what secondary trauma looks like (often in ways people miss), why it builds over time, and a few practical ways to start unloading it—especially for clinicians, first responders, and the people who are always the steady one.
First responders should watch it!
This free training with Steve Bisson, LMHC, explores how secondary trauma develops and offers tools to protect mental health and well-being.
