Produktbeschreibung

The Resilient Practitioner, 4th edition, gives students and practitioners valuable tools for creating their own boundaried generosity, a vibrant method for balancing caring for others and caring for oneself.

The new edition builds on the strengths of the earlier editions and incorporates the lived experience of practitioners in the helping, caring, and relationship-intense fields. Readers will find new material in the Architecture of Resilience chapter, a self-care action plan that incorporates SMART goals to increase goal-setting success and a focus on both individual responsibility and organizational responsibility for burnout prevention and the development of resilience.

The new edition also includes self-reflection exercises in each chapter, a resiliency inventory for practitioners, a strong focus on research, and an accessible writing style. The authors continue to chart a hopeful path for practitioners, one that allows for a high level of caring for others in the helping professions while also artfully caring for oneself.

It is beautifully written and contains a treasure trove of essential information on professional helpers' self-care and care of others.

"As a practitioner in private practice, I frequently turn to this book for reminders of how to persist despite the demands of psychologically taxing work. As a professor and supervisor, I frequently refer students to this book so that they can learn how to engage in self-care in a systematic, thoughtful way. The Resilient Practitioner should be required reading for students and should be on the bookshelf of all practitioners in the helping fields such as health care, education, and social work."
