Webinar #210 Jelena Sivulka - Limits to compassion
Recorded on 8 Augusty 2024 for ICMDA Webinars.
Dr Peter Saunders chairs a webinar with Jelena Sivulka
Compassion is the emotional response to another's suffering and the desire to help. Limits to compassion arise when constant exposure to suffering leads to compassion fatigue, causing emotional and physical exhaustion.
Jelena will share her experiences and insights on recovering from compassion fatigue and rediscovering compassion satisfaction. She will discuss strategies like reconnecting with one's motivation for helping, fostering supportive relationships, and engaging in activities that renew purpose and joy. These practices help individuals regain resilience and continue providing effective care.
Jelena was born and raised in Serbia, where she got her master’s degree in psychology and in theology. She became a Christian 25 years ago and a few years later got involved in ministry with her husband Greg, planting churches, distributing humanitarian aid, and partnering with Joni and Friends, serving people with disabilities.
Jelena has also worked as a counsellor in Serbia’s schools and a social worker, and she is currently working as therapist in a medical clinic. She is the founder and director of the non-profit organisation Hana's Hope. She has been blessed with three children: Benjamin, Sara, and Hana, who has autism.
