Implementation Supports to Reduce Burnout in Therapists Delivering Child Trauma EBPs

The SUPPORTS implementation model will be developed and refined based on community feedback. It will likely include a combination of strategies demonstrated to reduce burnout and secondary traumatic stress in the occupational health literature, such as psychoeducation about burnout, mindfulness training, or changes in scheduling or the physical environment. As the most effective interventions have been shown to involve an integration of both individual- and organization-directed strategies supporting each other, SUPPORTS will aim to include both. For example, the model may include provider-directed strategies such as group peer consultation meetings, and organizational-directed strategies such as increasing communication and providers' involvement in organizational decisions. Through this approach, SUPPORTS will aim to target therapist burnout and turnover at the provider and organizational level.
