Abstract :In this study, it is aimed to examine the concept of self-compassion within the framework of the My Sweet Orange Tree trilogy. To achieve this aim, the factors of attachment theory, schemas, positive psychology, humanist theory, acceptance-commitment therapy, culture, religion, gender and age, which can be effective in the development of individuals’ self-compassion, have been tried to be examined. The study was carried out with the document analysis method, one of the qualitative study techniques. It can be said that the results obtained are consistent with the literature. There have been previous studies on self-compassion, but studies examining more factors together are limited. Events experienced by the character Zeze, theoretical perspectives, and environmental factors have helped us to conclude that self-compassion is effective in individual’s development.Keywords : My Sweet Orange Tree, Self-compassion, Zeze
