Book Your Free Discovery Session

Backed by Science

Self-compassion isn’t just feel-good advice—it’s research-proven.

Studies show self-compassion:

  • Increases motivation to improve after setbacks
  • Enhances performance in work and personal goals
  • Reduces anxiety and depression while building resilience
  • Promotes healthier behaviors and sustainable habits
  • Accelerates growth by reducing fear of failure

 

The bottom line: Self-compassion helps you reach goals faster and maintain progress longer—without the burnout of self-criticism.

What is Self-Compassion Based Life Coaching?

A collaborative partnership grounded in research-backed self-compassion principles. This approach empowers you to unlock your potential and achieve meaningful goals—while treating yourself with the kindness you’d offer a good friend.

Through powerful questioning, active listening, and compassionate guidance, your coach helps you:

  • Gain clarity on what matters most
  • Develop actionable strategies
  • Build genuine confidence from self-acceptance, not self-judgment

 

The result: Lasting positive change without the harsh inner critic.

Why Self-Compassion is Our foundation?

We’ve been taught that harsh self-criticism drives success. Research proves the opposite.

Self-criticism leads to:

  • Increased anxiety and depression
  • Decreased performance
  • Lower motivation

Self-compassion delivers:

  • Greater willingness to improve after setbacks
  • Stronger motivation for personal growth
  • Better performance on goals that matter

 

The shift: Achieve through kindness, not criticism. Grow through understanding, not judgment. Create lasting change through self-acceptance, not self-attack.

Coaching is valuable for ANYONE ready to grow in self-compassion and create positive change in any area:

How is Coaching Different?

Coaching vs Therapy

While therapy often focuses on healing past experiences and addressing mental health concerns, coaching is future-focused and action-oriented, concentrating on achieving specific goals and enhancing performance.

Coaching vs. Self-Compassion Training

Self-Compassion training typically involves learning in a group setting, whereas coaching develops your ability to find your own solutions, respond with self-compassion to your unique challenges, and build sustainable habits based on your goals for ongoing success.

Coaching Terms of Participation

These terms of participation are the essential foundation for a successful coaching relationship. This agreement is between Self-Compassion LLC, its contracted Coaches, and prospective Clients seeking self-compassion-based life coaching. Please read the terms carefully and indicate your agreement at the bottom of the page. 

1) The Coach-Client Relationship: Coaching is a partnership (defined as an alliance, not a legal business partnership) between a Coach and a Client in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires the client to maximize personal and professional potential. It is designed to facilitate the creation/development of personal, professional, or business goals and to develop and carry out a strategy/plan for achieving those goals.

  1. All coaches offered through Self-Compassion LLC agree to maintain the ethics and standards of behavior established by the International Coach Federation (ICF)  https://coachingfederation.org/credentialing/coaching-ethics/icf-code-of-ethics/
  2. Client is solely responsible for creating and implementing his/her own physical, mental, and emotional well-being, decisions, choices, actions, and results arising out of or resulting from the coaching relationship and his/her coaching calls and interactions with the Coach. As such, the Client agrees that Self-Compassion LLC, nor its coaches are liable or responsible for any actions or inaction, or for any direct or indirect result of any services provided by the Coach. Client understands coaching is not therapy and does not substitute for therapy if needed, and does not prevent, cure, or treat any mental disorder or medical disease.
  3. Client acknowledges that coaching is a comprehensive process that may involve different areas of his or her life, including work, finances, health, relationships, education, and recreation. The Client agrees that deciding how to handle these issues, incorporating coaching principles into those areas, and implementing choices is exclusively the Client’s responsibility.
  4. Client acknowledges that coaching does not involve the diagnosis or treatment of mental disorders as defined by the American Psychiatric Association and that coaching is not to be used as a substitute for counseling, psychotherapy, psychoanalysis, mental health care, substance abuse treatment, or other professional advice by legal, medical or other qualified professionals and that it is the Client’s exclusive responsibility to seek such independent professional guidance as needed. If Client is currently under the care of a mental health professional, it is recommended that the Client promptly inform the mental health care provider of the nature and extent of the coaching relationship agreed upon by the Client and the Coach.
  5. The Client understands that in order to enhance the coaching relationship, the Client agrees to communicate honestly, be open to feedback and assistance, and to create the time and energy to participate fully in the program.
  6. Client further acknowledges that he/she may terminate or discontinue the coaching relationship at any time. (Details explained below)

The coach will wait up to 15 minutes for the arrival of the Client before considering the client a no-show if no prior notification has been given. 

4)  Cancellation & No-show Policy It is the Client’s responsibility to cancel no later than 24 hours in advance of any scheduled session.

5)  Confidentiality This coaching relationship, as well as all information (documented or verbal) that the Client shares with the Coach as part of this relationship, is bound by the principles of confidentiality set forth in the ICF Code of Ethics.

The Client also acknowledges his or her continuing obligation to raise any confidentiality questions or concerns with the Coach in a timely manner.

6)  Release of Information
