Burnout: What it is and How to Avoid it

Dr. Robert Wicks is a psychologist with vast experience in helping others recover from trauma. His work focuses on teaching resilience, self-care, and the prevention of secondary stress (the pressures encountered in reaching out to others), with techniques he has used for over 30 years in helping physicians, nurses, psychotherapists, educators, social workers, ministers, and relief workers not only survive but flourish in highly stressful occupations. In this Faith Forum conversation, we will explore how to transform stressful situations into opportunities to live a more meaningful, self-aware, and compassionate life.
