Have you ever found yourself in a situation—whether caring for family members or acting as a professional caregiver—where you’ve poured out too much of your own mental and physical energy?

You might have asked yourself these questions: "How do I find the balance between helping others and taking care of myself? How do we know when we are giving too much and neglecting our own needs? What are the consequences when we lose that balance?"

Boundaries are essential for maintaining balance within family relationships and even in the professional helping sector. Even as a professional—such as a lawyer or social worker—it is possible to become overly entangled in your cases.

In this video, Dr. Carrie Barone (Collier) explores the issues of boundaries, over-focusing on others, and over-functioning. She will explain the circumstances under which people are most susceptible to being drawn into the anxiety of others, and how this relates to our families of origin.
