Working Through Vicarious Trauma

A reflective workshop for therapists, carers and frontline professionals.

Designed to support emotional release, nervous system recovery and reconnection through rhythm, movement and guided process. A creative way to care for the carer.

What is Working Through Vicarious Trauma?

As helping professionals, we often hold space for others while quietly carrying our own stress, grief, and secondary trauma. This workshop offers a space to reconnect to yourself — gently and creatively.

We explore:

• What vicarious trauma is (and how it shows up in your body)

• Guided rhythm and movement practices to release tension

• Techniques for emotional reset and nervous system care

• Symbolic expression to externalise what can’t be said in words

It’s not about fixing — it’s about feeling, honouring, and releasing.

Who It's For

Designed for:

• Therapists, psychologists and counsellors

• Carers, social workers, support workers and crisis responders

• Nurses, educators, and anyone exposed to other people’s pain

• People who work with stories of trauma and carry it home

This workshop is especially helpful if you:

• Want a body-based approach to processing what you absorb

• Need a safe space to soften, express and reconnect

That’s exactly who it’s for.

Yes, absolutely.
