In this podcast episode, we are joined by Dr. Kyle Baillie, Associate Vice President, Students at the University of the Fraser Valley, to discuss Secondary Trauma and its impact on campus staff. While it has long been recognized in fields such as nursing and social work, Dr. Baillie’s research has helped bring attention to how this phenomenon uniquely affects student affairs professionals in the Canadian post-secondary context.
Throughout the episode, Dr. Baillie explores how Secondary Trauma shows up in campus roles, organizational and systemic factors that can increase risk, and highlights practical ways institutions and individuals can recognize, prevent, and respond to Secondary Trauma.
