Relationship between Empathy and Burnout among Indian Women School Counsellors

Exploring the Link between Empathy and Burnout among Indian Women School Counsellors

Abstract

Helping experts who work with individuals having unending pressure or illness will in general dismissal their very own selfcare needs when concentrating on the needs of clients. The negative psychological impact experienced because of prolonged period of stress in one’s job is known as burnout. Burnout mainly consists of three components, emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and lack of personal efficacy. There have been previous researches that have inspected burnout among mental health workers, yet scarcely any of them have deliberately intended to study burnout among school counsellors. Given the measure of time kids spend in the school setting (7– 8 h for every day) and high national assessments of youth trauma presentation, this line of investigation is important. The reason for this exploration is to look at the connection between empathy and burnout among the Indian counsellors working in the school setting.
