Boundaries and Self-Care: Sustaining yourself while supporting others

Educational professionals are often deeply committed to supporting others—sometimes at the expense of their own well-being. This training reframes self-care as a professional responsibility, not an indulgence, and explores boundaries as the foundation for sustainable, ethical, and effective service. Participants will examine how blurred boundaries contribute to stress, compassion fatigue, and burnout, and learn concrete strategies for setting limits without guilt.

Learning Objectives:

• Recognize signs of burnout, secondary traumatic stress, and boundary erosion.

• Understand how role clarity and boundaries support ethical and effective practice.

• Identify personal and professional boundary challenges common in educational settings.

• Practice language for setting and maintaining boundaries with students, families, and colleagues.

• Develop a realistic, individualized self-care plan aligned with their role and values.
