Abstract | Psychology trainees pursuing a master's or doctorate in clinical or counseling psychology must invest years of their lives into academic and clinical work. Informed by the knowledge and experience they acquire throughout these years, psychology trainees' commitment to the field of psychology expands into finding a passion for the populations they want to serve. Although commitment and passion serve as strong motivators to fulfil the requirements each psychology program entails, clinical training is often characterized as a time of high stress for psychology trainees, with potentially severe consequences for personal, academic, and professional functioning if not managed effectively (Huprich & Rudd, 2003; Pakenham & Stafford-Brown, 2012). When psychology trainees experience the presence of burnout and/or vicarious trauma, their ability effectively manage high stress is hindered, resulting in difficulties managing or sustaining additional roles they adhere to outside of their lives as trainees. Several studies have explored the outcomes of implementing mindfulness into the curriculum of their psychology training program and have found promising results shedding light on the benefits mindfulness has on psychology trainees and the clients they serve. This autoethnographic study, written in first person, explores the process and outcomes of implementing mindfulness into a psychology trainee's regime. It allows the readers to critique and reflect upon the role mindfulness played in the researcher's experience with burnout and vicarious trauma resulting from providing trauma informed clinical work with underserved populations. Lastly, this study hones on improving the culture of self-care and self-compassion within psychology training programs from a postmodern and social constructivist approach.
