IN-PERSON PARTICIPANTS Workshop 2: Friday Early Afternoon (F2W2) - 90 Minutes Preventing Burnout by Susan Simpson & Diana Kleijzen |
|
|
Aim: This workshop provides an opportunity for therapists to develop self-awareness into the effects of their own underlying schemas & modes in the work setting. There will be a focus on schema domains as presented in the original Schema Therapy model, and the ways in which these are linked both to burnout and resilience. Participants will be encouraged to examine their own underlying unmet emotional needs and schemas, and the way in which these interact with those of their clients, as well as their colleagues and work environments. Participants will learn about those needs that interfere with their own well-being and quality of life, whilst exploring ways o building their Resilient Healthy mode in the context of their own work environment. This workshop will give participants the opportunity to practice different ways to build regular restorative practices (including breathing techniques, movement, micro-pauses) into their everyday work-life, in order to maintain equilibrium and build resilience. In the workshop a connection is being made between basic needs and bodily sensations, with helpful exercises to integrate these ideas into daily routines. Drawing on the available research on this topic, this workshop will enable participants to reflect on how they can better take care of themselves and build resilience. Whilst this workshop will highlight some important scientific findings, the primary focus will be on giving participants the chance to learn and try out some of our exercises. We aim to focus on our restorative energy in our daily professional and personal life. Teaching Methods: Powerpoint, video demonstrations, roleplay, guided meditation/visualisation exercises. Learning Objectives: 1/ To recognise and monitor the main schemas and modes driving burnout 2/ To learn about factors that build 'Healthy Adult' resilience amongst psychotherapists 3/ To learn about the impact of 'mindsets' in cultivating resilience vs. burnout. 3/ To learn strategies for building 'embodied resilience', including: meditations for embodiment, micro-pauses for self-restoration, breath and body movement work.

Participants will explore the impact of schemas and unmet emotional needs on their own well-being and quality of life, whilst exploring ways of strengthening their Healthy Adult mode in the context of their work environment. The workshop will briefly present ways in which therapists can introduce a range of regular restorative practices (including breathing techniques, movement, micro-pauses) into their everyday work-life, in order to maintain equilibrium and build resilience. Participants will have an opportunity to reflect on how they can better take care of themselves and build resilience. Whilst we will highlight some important scientific findings, the primary focus will be on demonstrating and trying out some of our exercises. We aim to focus on our restorative energy in our daily professional and personal life.
