In this insightful episode of Taking Care of U, counselors Julie Rosen-Nieto and Jennifer Staffero from Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS) return to explore self-compassion — what it is, why it matters and how to practice it.
They share research-based insights on how self-compassion reduces depression, anxiety, stress and shame. Through real-life examples and practical techniques, the counselors explain how being kind to ourselves isn’t just important — it’s essential.
