Supporting Your Supervisees and Yourself with Self-Care Micro-Strategies (on demand)

Supporting Your Supervisees and Yourself with Self-Care Micro-Strategies (on demand)

In this fun workshop, supervisors will implement ways to help supervisees build self-care micro-strategies into their busy days, so that they aren’t hanging on by a thread waiting for their next vacation or day off. These micro-strategies take from 0-2 minutes, and are meant to be used throughout the day so that self-care is always front-of-mind. We will discuss personal and systemic obstacles and identify micro-strategies for emotional, mental and physical self-care.

Purpose: To help clinical supervisors build a toolbox of self-care micro-strategies that they can use themselves and teach their supervisees to reduce the risk of burnout.

Learning Objectives:

Participants will: 

1. Discuss the critical and primary nature of self-care
2. Identify personal and systemic obstacles that get in the way of self-care
3. Develop emotional, mental and physical self-care micro-strategies
4. Formulate a personal self-care plan
