I think this sounds a lot like “Person of the therapist….”

Dr. Tara Byers invites us to consider what it means to be a competent, helping professional and engage in our own professional growth and development. While formal education is crucial, the true growth and development happen in those moments where we face challenges and push through our uncertainties in order to provide quality care for families. Dr. Byers emphasizes the importance of investing in ourselves personally and surrounding ourselves with people who can help us foster our professional stance.

Two questions to consider:

1.What are you doing to invest in yourself, personally to maintain that ability to be regulated and open in the face of difficult challenges and still development moments for you.

2.Who are you surrounding yourself with who can help you to foster that stance in yourself?
