Handbook

This topic is designed to focus on the professional (practitioner, manager, supervisor) working with, or supporting people who work with people experiencing trauma. Students will develop specialised coherent body of knowledge about professional self-care, vicarious trauma, importance of understanding emotions and boundaries in work contexts, coping, and core elements of supervision for the supervisor and supervisee. Through the acquisition of contemporary knowledge about supervision/leadership and being trauma responsive the student will learn to analyse and critically evaluate the supervisor-supervisee relationship. In doing so promote professionals who are accountable and confident to survive and thrive in organisational settings and systems responding to trauma and complexity.
