Dr. Caroline Leaf Podcast

In this episode, I speak with Dr. Michele Lee from the International Justice Mission (IJM), a global non-profit of investigators, lawyers, social workers, healthcare professionals and advocates fighting for the freedom and protection of the most vulnerable. We discuss what modern day slavery looks like in our world today, what it means to work with victims of violence and abuse, healing trauma on an individual and a communal level, the power of being able to tell your own story, how IJM helps survivors recover, how to deal with secondary trauma and compassion fatigue, the importance of mindfulness and rest as an advocate, and how you can help someone who has experienced sexual trauma.  Read the show blog here: https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/how-this-organization-is-helping-human-trafficking-survivors-heal-their-mental-health-and-recover-from-trauma-tips-from-a-front-line-psychologist-on-how-to-manage-secondary-trauma-amp-compassion-fatigueFor more info on IJM and to help sponsor a therapy session for
