Heidi Kling PhD | Promoting Self-Compassion and Self-Acceptance

Gratitude practices can also promote self-compassion and self-acceptance, helping individuals develop a more positive relationship with themselves and cultivate greater self-esteem and self-worth.

Cultivating Self-Compassion

Psychologists such as Heidi Kling (therapist) guide clients in developing self-compassion by encouraging them to extend the same kindness and understanding towards themselves that they would offer to a friend in need. Gratitude practices such as writing self-affirmations or engaging in self-care activities can help clients nurture a sense of self-love and acceptance, fostering a greater sense of inner peace and well-being.
