In this second edition of Second-Hand Shock, including the Aftershock Workbook, the experts explore the subtle and covert ways that absorbing others' trauma while controlling empathy can lead to vicarious trauma by gradually altering the structure of the brain, negatively affecting the mind and ultimately desensitizing, numbing, and causing these disturbances. Working through the Aftershock Workbook provides healing and relief.

Offering acknowledgment and hope to the millions of helping professionals, Second-Hand Shock and the Aftershock Workbook, guide helping professionals through the Rapid Advance Process to recovery. Once you recognize the warning signs and symptoms of vicarious trauma, you will find relief and recovery as you work through your own vicarious trauma through the Aftershock Workbook.
