Providing Psychological Intervention Following Traumatic Events: Understanding and Managing Psychologists' Own Stress Reactions
Hayes, Ben; Frederickson, Norah
Educational Psychology in Practice, v24 n2 p91-104 Jun 2008
The role of the educational psychology service in crisis support is well established. This paper examines a key aspect of this role, the impact on psychologists themselves, and reviews literature on secondary stress, considering the term "stress" itself as part of the discussion. It examines recommendations for professional practice and self care in disasters and considers a model that could be used to inform supervision and professional practice. (Contains 3 figures and 2 tables.)
