Self-compassion isn't a wellness add-on —

in trauma recovery, it's a clinical practice.

This CEC-certified training explores what self-compassion actually means for the practitioners doing this work and the clients they serve, through a trauma-informed, culturally grounded, and somatic lens. Facilitated by Rajni Sharma, Registered Psychotherapist, this course moves beyond the standard framework to examine how shame, self-criticism, and the inner critic are shaped by culture, systems, and lived experience — and what that means for how we show up in the room. You'll explore the neuroscience of shame, the distinction between compassion and accountability, and what sustainable practice actually requires — structurally, relationally, and somatically. This training is for practitioners who want to work with self-compassion honestly — not as a technique to teach clients, but as a practice to inhabit themselves.
