The study focuses on compassion fatigue and compassion satisfaction among teachers using a mixed-methods research design integrating qualitative and quantitative approaches. The findings provide deeper insight into teachers’ emotional experiences and identify self-compassion and reduced self-criticism as important protective factors of professional well-being. The study also evaluates a brief emotion-focused intervention demonstrating positive effects on increasing self-compassion and reducing self-criticism, thereby contributing to the development of evidence-based interventions supporting teachers’ psychological resilience.
