About Deb

Let’s Reach Your Goals Together

I will help you recognize and recover from secondary trauma using my R.E.S.E.T. method because many educators don’t realize the stress and emotional weight they carry isn’t burnout; it’s the accumulation of the trauma their students have experienced. 

Through training and consulting, I will teach you how to protect your well-being so you can stay compassionate, effective, and whole, without absorbing the pain of the people you serve.

In Classrooms All Around the World

There are professionals who show up every day for people in crisis. They steady the chaos. They absorb the stories. They carry the emotional weight so others don’t have to.

However, no one teaches them what happens when those stories begin to stick.

Deb Alverson is not only a certified school counselor and certified educational administrator. She is THE secondary traumatic stress, compassion fatigue, and burnout specialist who helps educators understand, prevent, and recover using her R.E.S.E.T. method. Her work focuses on the invisible cost of caring and educating, through the emotional residue that accumulates when serving individuals who have experienced trauma.
