Description
From depression and anxiety to addiction and trauma, a lack of self-compassion lies at the core of nearly every presenting problem. When therapy is effective, the therapist’s compassionate attitude seems to rub off on the client. Luckily, self-compassion exercises can also be taught and practiced between sessions, making the therapy relationship more portable. This recording will show how to apply Carl Roger’s maxim “When I accept myself just as I am, then I can change.”
