Introduction
Vicarious post-traumatic growth (VPTG) is development individuals experience from working with people who have been affected by a traumatic event (Kang et al., 2018). Arnold et al., (2005) introduced the term VPTG, noting that practice improved when supporting clients with trauma including increased empathy and compassion. Previous research focused on specific traumatic events or was based in specific countries. The rationale for reviewing all available research is to gain deeper understanding of how VPTG can support greater understanding of this complex and troubling phenomenon.

Limitations: There are a limited amount of qualitative research journals on this topic. There is only one author to the study so author bias might have occurred. Within the included papers, most of the participants were female. This study has found that VPTG can have a positive impact on counsellors' development and can improve counsellors' relationships with themselves, their clients and others within their lives. VPTG can also have a positive impact on counsellors' idea of self allowing them to be more congruent with their belief systems. Whilst findings show that VPTG can have a positive impact, the process to achieving VPTG can be more difficult, with findings from this study showing that to achieve VPTG a counsellor must first experience VT in some form.聽
