<p class="MsoNormal" style="background:white"><i><span style="color:black">As a doctoral candidate in the Counselor Education and Supervision program at Liberty University, I am conducting research as part of the requirements for a Doctor of Philosophy degree.
The purpose of my research is to explore the influence that crisis preparedness, crisis self-efficacy, mental well-being and job satisfaction have on a crisis counselor’s professional quality of life (compassion satisfaction, burnout, and secondary traumatic
stress). This study aims to find factors that promote compassion satisfaction and protect against burnout and secondary traumatic stress in crisis counselors. I am writing to invite you to join my study.</span></i><span style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

in a crisis setting(s). The following are applicable settings: crisis stabilization unit, inpatient psychiatric hospitals, co-responder programs, mobile crisis services, or 24/7 hotline. A counselor who has worked in a crisis setting but is no longer in the
counseling field is eligible to participate in this study. Participants will be asked to take an anonymous, online survey that takes approximately ten minutes to complete. Participation will be completely anonymous, and no personal, identifying information
will be collected.</span></i><span style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
