How to be Supportive During a Crisis
There have always been crises in people’s lives but seldom have so many of us known so many people in distress and suffering. Most of us want to be supportive, but it can be hard to understand how to be helpful. At times we may find ourselves overwhelmed by our compassionate attention to others. It is also the case that sometimes our best intentions backfire. This webinar will address how to be helpful – attuned, thoughtful, supportive – without becoming overburdened. I address how to avoid empathic pitfalls while offering support. We will describe how to think about resilience as a zone and create a resource list that fits each person’s resilience profile. Finally, we will consider how to mobilize reasonable hope and benefit from vicarious hope.
