A chat with our psychologist: Part 2 - Is Self-Compassion the Antidote to shame?
In the season finale of Season 1, we're joined once again by clinical psychologist Andrea Wallace for a powerful discussion on the role of self-compassion in healing shame, especially for people living with OCD.
Andrea breaks down why shame and OCD so often go hand in hand, and how cultivating self-kindness can be a transformative part of the recovery process. We also explore: • Why shame frequently accompanies OCD • What to do when withholding joy becomes a compulsion • How to help children release shame • A simple, guided self-compassion exercise you can try at home Whether you're living with OCD, supporting someone who is, or simply curious about the link between self-compassion, shame, and mental health, this episode is for you.
