In this second edition of Second-Hand Shock, including the Aftershock
Workbook, the experts explore the subtle and covert ways that absorbing
others' trauma while controlling empathy can lead to vicarious trauma by
gradually altering the structure of the brain, negatively affecting the
mind and ultimately desensitizing, numbing, and causing these
disturbances. Working through the Aftershock Workbook provides healing
and relief.
Offering acknowledgment and hope to the millions of helping
professionals, Second-Hand Shock and the Aftershock Workbook, guide
helping professionals through the Rapid Advance Process to recovery.
Once you recognize the warning signs and symptoms of vicarious trauma,
you will find relief and recovery as you work through your own vicarious
trauma through the Aftershock Workbook.
