"I handle stressful situations by remaining calm and focused on the situation. I realize stress is part of my job, and instead of letting stress negatively affect me, I reflect and try to figure out what is causing the situation to be stressful. Once I identify what is making the situation stressful, I can then find a remedy. For example, I had a patient who started having a seizure in a group therapy session. The other patients became very agitated, making the situation more stressful than it would have been. After I called 911, I explained to the other patients what was happening and asked them to remain calm until help arrived. I made sure the patient having the seizure didn't hurt themself, and the other patients calmed down when they realized the situation was under control."
