WEBINAR DETAILS

This webinar will discuss the important impact of our own expectable emotional reactions to the work we do. Developing this self-awareness and understanding the role of countertransference allows us to be exquisitely present with patients and families, providing the best care possible. It also ensures we are not visiting them with our own emotional issues. We will review expectable reactions; explanation and role of countertransference; strategies for understanding; and ideas for in-the-moment responses.
