About this talk
Working closely with trauma, distress and human suffering can leave a lasting psychological impact, even when it isn't your own experience.
Designed for GPs, NHS staff and mental health professionals, this session offers a compassionate, evidence-informed space to understand secondary (vicarious) trauma and its effects on wellbeing, clinical judgement and professional performance. Dr Ravi Gill explores how secondary trauma shows up cognitively, emotionally and physically, how it differs from burnout, and why it is a normal response to caring work rather than a personal weakness. The focus is firmly practical, with trauma-informed strategies including boundaries, micro-buffers, reflective practice and safe debriefing.
