Abstract:
This article deals with the psychological effects of exposure to continuous trauma events on professionals, who themselves are in need of supportive interventions. These professionals, who are in the secondary circle of trauma, experience compassion fatigue or emotional burnout. Structured interventions are now in place to strengthen the resilience of helping professionals.
