Feelings of job dissatisfaction and burnout are not exclusive to social workers involved with the welfare system; in our profession, it is an issue that can be faced in any area, including clinical practice. It is easy to get stuck in feelings that one is not making progress with a certain client and feel demoralized as a result. The three concepts focused on in this article to avoid burnout when interacting with the welfare system can also be applied to clinical work.
