Nurturing the Nurturer: Caregiver Distress

Have you been told to be “more resilient” or to “work smarter, not harder?” Using platitudes to discount legitimate feelings can cause those feelings to become buried alive in our bodies and unconscious mind. These kinds of platitudes might make us feel guilty because it isn’t always possible to be more resilient or work smarter. Well intentioned platitudes misused to discount feelings can lead to “burnout” and secondary traumatic stress.
