Welcome back to another episode of Inside your head!

Self-compassion is about more than just practicing self-care or doing nice things for yourself. Self-compassion takes courage and bravery. It links to how we regulate emotions, our boundaries and 4how we even navigate relationships. Today I chat to Maroné Oosthuizen, counselling psychologist at our Rosebank branch, about this topic. Self-compassion is more than just a topic for Maroné, she has invested a lot of her time in understanding and studying it. She is a recovering self-basher and she has done her masters’ thesis on this topic, so this has really become a big part of her way of thinking – on both a personal and professional level.

If you want to know more about Maroné and the services she offers, you can visit psychcentral.co.za. You can also follow us on your preferred social media platform, where our handle is @psychcentralsouthAfrica on TikTok, Instagram,Youtube and Facebook.
