ALL RISE: WELL-BEING FOR LAWYERS

Disconnection from feelings | Anticipatory anxiety | Perfectionism | Control

A Perfect Storm

The NYSBA’s Report of the Task Force on Attorney Well-being states that lawyers are encompassed by a perfect storm of factors which negatively impact mental health and well-being in the profession.

Lawyers need a place to pause, recognize how their lives and practices have been impacted by their work, and cultivate skills to rebuild their capacity for thriving.
