Building Self Compassion Group - Counseling Associates

When life feels like a constant stream of pressure, it’s easy to get caught up in cycles of high expectations, mental overwhelm, and feeling like we’re never “enough”. Maybe you’ve been running on empty or constantly bracing for the next thing. Perhaps, you’re just tired of being so hard on yourself. Building Self-Compassion is a Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) group designed to help adults shift from self-criticism and self-judgement to self-kindness. Grounded in evidence-based concepts from self-compassion research, mindfulness, and cognitive-behavioral techniques, this group explores how self-compassion can improve resilience, shift patterns of negative self-talk, and support meaningful behavioral change.

Over the span of this 16-week program, each one-hour session includes experiential exercises, guided reflection, group discussion, and gentle encouragement to try out new approaches in daily life. Whether you’re navigating burnout, perfectionism, transitions, or inner conflict, this group offers a place to slow down, reflect, and grow alongside others on the same journey. If you’re ready to explore a more compassionate way of being with yourself, this group may be a powerful place to start.

Open to adults seeking support with perfectionism, self-criticism, burnout, or low self-esteem.

Includes: Psychoeducation, experiential practices, reflection prompts, group discussion.
