Description
Hope to Healing(tm) is focused on healing healers, those individuals who dedicate their lives to helping others and are at high risk for compassion fatigue. Traditionally, these professions have been viewed as a 'practice’ that is based on rational and considered thought - but these professionals do emotional work; they deal with pain, joy, anxiety, unhappiness, hope, loss and anger on a daily basis. Care taking or healing professions, especially those in high stress, trauma-exposed environments such as healthcare, the criminal justice sector, social and human services, emergency response, armed forces, education, child welfare, community mental health, non-profit organizations and related services have the highest rate of suicide over any other professions and were prone to burn-out with stressful work environments, but with COVID the perfect storm of burnout, compassion fatigue, mental fatigue and labor shortages with increased healing service demands has prompted founders to bring to all those in caregiving capacities the coping, healing, resilience support. and spiritual heightening so they may fulfill their purpose and we may preserve these critical services for humanity.
