- Abstract
Counselors are professional helpers who need to meet qualifications and competencies. There is a counselor’s character that can support professional counseling services, which is “self-compassion.” “Self-compassion” is a state of being open, understanding one’s suffering, and not trying to avoid it. Counselors with a strong sense of “self-compassion” can be empathetic, open, understanding, and accepting themselves as they are. In addition to having a character that supports professional counseling services, counselors possess “mind-skills.” “Mind skills” are internal skills that play a crucial role in conducting effective counseling activities. Mind skills can assist counselors in their attitudes, behaviors, and communication. The purpose of this research is to understand the contribution of “mind-skills” to counselors’ self-character of “self-compassion.” This article employs a literature review as a research method, involving the collection of literature sources, reading, and analyzing various types of literature: books, journals, dissertations, e-books, and relevant cases. The results of this research comprise a comprehensive review of the contribution of mind skills to the self-character of “self-compassion” in counselors, including 1) the “self-compassion” of counselors, 2) the mind-skills of counselors, and 3) the contribution of mind-skills to counselors’ self-character of “self-compassion”.
