Certification Training for Compassion Fatigue Professionals (CCFP)

Become a Certified Compassion Fatigue Professional.

Are you feeling burned out from your work as a professional caregiver?

As internationally recognized trauma treatment leader Eric Gentry, Ph.D., LMHC, explains, "There is no way to do professional caregiving without it having some negative impacts on our lives. I have watched many excellent caregivers in this field say 'enough' and leave the field because of compassion fatigue burn out."

When a caregiver experiences compassion fatigue, what follows are feelings of hopelessness, stress and a sense of inadequacy.

That's why Dr. Gentry designed this powerful Compassion Fatigue Professional Certification (CCFP) Online Training. Based on 15 years of break-through research with compassion fatigue, this online training will help you recapture your sense of mission, purpose, hope and joy as a caregiver.

Through this training, you'll learn the evidence-based professional resiliency skills to eliminate stress and combat the emotional demands of your work.

Plus you'll meet the educational requirements for Evergreen Certifications Compassion Fatigue Professional Certification so you can teach your patients how to live more hopeful and joyful lives.

Join Dr. Gentry and start feeling reinvigorated in your work to end your patients' suffering.

Master the 16 Certification Criteria for Compassion Fatigue Professionals

Clear understanding of the potential symptoms and effects associated with compassion fatigue. Skilled administration and interpretation of compassion fatigue assessment instruments for self and others with primary focus upon the Pro-QOL (Stamm, 2005). Awareness of and ability to narrate one's own personal/professional history that has lead to negative effects associated with professional and/or volunteer care giving. Understand the role that perceived threat and sympathetic nervous system dominance play in the generation of compassion fatigue symptoms and, conversely, the role of self-regulation in the amelioration of current effects and prevention of future effects. Identify the process (i.e., “infection”) of secondary traumatic stress—how does a professional become gradually symptomatic when working with traumatized and suffering others? Be aware of how to use (a) connection/support; (b) relaxation, and (c) exposure/narrative to resolve current symptoms and to prevent future effects associated with secondary traumatic stress.	9. Knowing methods to resolve current and prevent future effects of burnout in professional care giving contexts. 10. Skilled application of CBT tools (e.g., relaxation, exposure and perceptual change) to lessen the effects of compassion fatigue in one's own life. 11. Appreciate the role of intentionality and principle-based care giving (i.e., internal locus of control) as a method for symptom amelioration and resiliency. 12. Ability to understand and articulate the effects of compassion fatigue as being failed or thwarted professional maturation. 13. Ability to understand and articulate the specific processes, trajectory and tasks associated with professional maturation and how developing these skills enhance resiliency. 14. Comprehend and articulate a model of professional resiliency that allows the care provider to be healthy and maximally functional independent of environmental “demands” (internal vs. external control). 15. Recognize five (5) key resiliency skills for the prevention of compassion fatigue and how to implement these skills towards the prevention of negative work-related effects. 16.
