Abstract

Often, people working in helping professions, like behavior technicians, do not get sufficient training on how to manage stress and take care of themselves, which makes burnout common. Without the skills to handle the emotional and psychological demands of their work, they can become unhappy in their jobs, face mental health struggles, and find it hard to provide quality care to their clients. Providing tools for self-care and stress management can improve their well-being and help them stay effective in their work. To help increase stress management and self-care, I created a one-day workshop for behavior technicians employed at the Center for Autism and Related Disorders in Salinas, California.
