Self-Care in Social Work: A Person-In-Environment Approach to Managing Occupational Stress and Burnout

"Shifting one's thinking is a critical aspect of self-care. The authors apply a cognitive framework to social work activities to support practitioners in preventing or reducing burnout, secondary trauma, and vicarious trauma. As in the first edition, this framework is woven into chapters devoted to self-awareness, self-regulation, and self-efficacy. Then, a macro approach is taken, examining the role of supervisory practices and organizational culture and their impact on social workers' well-being and emotional safety. The importance of the person-in-environment relationship is recognized, in keeping with the theoretical orientation of the field. This book is based on the premise that self-care should not be an add-on activity only happening in the rare instance there is some free time. Rather, it is conceptualized as a state of mind and considered an integral part of a social worker's training and an organization's responsibility to the field"--
