In trauma-informed care, it is essential to recognize the impact of trauma on individuals and to approach each interaction with sensitivity and respect. Establishing clear and compassionate boundaries helps to foster trust, facilitate healing, and empower clients to engage in their own healing journey. In this training we will explore the concept of professional boundaries and how we can achieve and sustain a healthy balance between our roles and responsibilities and the needs of those we support. We will explore and identify risk factors for boundary violations and how we can reduce them.
At the end of this training participants will be able to:
1. Describe the importance and key components of professional boundaries.
2. Identify boundary red flags and violations.
3. Identify ways to minimize the risk of boundary violations.
