Leigh de la Reza | The Impact of Vicarious Trauma on Family Law Attorneys
Manage episode 307888228 series 2913528
Today we are excited to welcome attorney Leigh de la Reza to the Texas Family Law Insiders' podcast. Leigh has been practicing family law for 16 years and is Board Certified in Family Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization.
Leigh’s husband is an Assistant Chief in their local fire department, which led her to specialize in working with first responders. Through this work, she learned about the effects of vicarious trauma. She soon learned that family lawyers suffer high rates of vicarious trauma due to what their jobs entail.
Leigh says, “Vicarious trauma differs from stress. It is work related exposure to victims of trauma.” We’ve invited her on the show today to talk about the impact of secondary traumatic stress among family law attorneys, and she’ll walk us through:
- Symptoms to look for to know if you are suffering from trauma
- How to maintain boundaries and employ self-care therapies to keep yourself safe from behavioral trauma burnout
- Cognitive restructuring—what is it and how you can use it to create resilience for you and your client
- And much more
