Mindful Self-Compassion Wednesday Night Workshops and Half-Day Retreat
The Mindful Self-Compassion (MSC) workshop is an evidence-based, 8-week program aimed at cultivating self-compassion skills. It combines mindfulness and compassion practices to foster kindness, warmth, and understanding towards oneself. The program involves various activities such as meditation, discussions, and home practices to facilitate direct experiences of self-compassion in daily life. MSC primarily focuses on compassion training rather than therapy, aiming to build emotional resources and foster positive change. While challenging emotions may arise during the practice, the workshop provides a supportive environment to explore and process these feelings. The program consists of 8 weekly sessions, each lasting 2 hours, along with a 4-hour retreat. Sessions will be hosted online over Zoom.

“I have done therapy on and off over the years, but what Resilience Psychotherapy offers is refreshingly different and so highly effective. Having a therapist and also being able to participate in the groups helps you be able to gain valuable insight about yourself, and then use that insight to develop the tools that are most necessary for your personal growth.
