Stabilization Techniques
Guardrails
You have to be emotionally stable when caring for others who are in emotional distress.
The only known way to achieve this is ...
... through practicing techniques for emotional self-stabilization ...

sessions & when needed
... during
sessions
... before
every session
even beginning to work with others' wounds
This is ideal. Since many helpers find themselves in difficult contexts for a variety of reasons, the highest possible approximation shall be the aim.
Even though your own circumstances can be difficult (be it profession, personal or both), there is no excuse for not practicing effective stabilization techniques yourself.

... do not allocate the necessary resources to provide the needed services
