Podcast: Career Practitioner Conversations with NCDA – Identifying Career Trauma—Featuring Amanda Chenkin and Rae Stout: Part 2

What techniques can career coaches and counselors use to address career trauma experiences by their students and clients?

Building from Part 1 in this short series, Dr. Sharon Givens hosts a conversation that provides practical strategies for working with students and clients who have experienced career trauma. Amanda Chenkin and Rae Stout share techniques for learning how your clients may be holding any trauma through open-ended questions and a narrative approach, and reflecting what you are hearing in their words and seeing in their body language. This episode also emphasizes the importance of asking permission to pursue these conversations with clients, understanding your own level of expertise, and developing a list of mental health professionals you know well and you can refer your students and clients to.
