dc.description.abstractDespite findings that suggest that many therapists experience symptoms of vicarious traumatization, research has been limited. One problem has been a lack of conceptual clarity. For example, the adverse consequences of working with traumatized patients have been variously described as vicarious trauma, secondary traumatic stress, and compassion fatigue, and also in other terms. Moreover, different scales used in the past have used different conceptualizations. We briefly review a study that attempted to address these problems and, on the basis of this research, we offer brief assessment tools to screen for both vicarious trauma and job burnout in clinical practice.
