Trauma 101
When: June 24 | 12:00-1:00 PM
Where: Virtual via Zoom
Cost: $20 self-pay
Trauma can shape the way we think, feel, relate to others, and move through everyday life.
In this virtual workshop, we'll explore how trauma impacts the nervous system, emotions, relationships, and daily functioning through a compassionate and accessible lens.
Led by Kristy Joy Weidner, LCSW, CCTP, and Emily Spirk, LAPC, MSCP, M.Ed., this workshop will help participants better understand common trauma responses such as overwhelm, hypervigilance, and emotional numbness, while introducing the role of safety, grounding, and nervous system awareness in the healing process.
Whether you're looking to better understand your own experiences, support a loved one, or deepen your understanding of trauma-informed care, all are welcome.
Join us for an hour of learning, reflection, and connection. Registration closes June 22.
Burnout & Compassion Fatigue
When: July 15 | 12:00-1:00 PM
Where: Virtual via Zoom
Cost: $20 self-pay
Caring for others can be deeply meaningful—but when the demands of caregiving, helping, supporting, or simply carrying too much become constant, it can also leave us feeling depleted. Burnout and compassion fatigue often develop gradually, showing up as exhaustion, emotional numbness, irritability, overwhelm, or a sense of disconnection from ourselves and the things that once brought us joy.
Join licensed therapists and mindfulness instructors Kristy Joy Weidner, LCSW, CCTP and Emily Spirk, LAPC, MSCP, M.Ed. for this supportive and educational virtual workshop exploring the emotional impact of chronic stress, caregiving, and helping professions. Together, we'll discuss the signs and symptoms of burnout and compassion fatigue, explore how these experiences affect the nervous system and overall well-being, and learn practical strategies for restoring balance, protecting your energy, and reconnecting with yourself.
Through reflection, discussion, and gentle mindfulness-based tools, participants will leave with a deeper understanding of burnout and sustainable practices to support long-term emotional wellness.
Whether you're a caregiver, healthcare worker, parent, therapist, educator, or simply someone who feels stretched too thin, this workshop offers a compassionate space to pause, reflect, and replenish.
Registration closes July 15.
