AI for Self-Help – The Book That Talks Back
I’m Tessa — psychologist (MSc), ACT & self-compassion specialist, and founder of Talk2Tessa.
Too many people try self-help books or AI tools and find the advice too vague, too long, or too cold.
AI for Self-Help changes that — blending Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), self-compassion, and AI Coaching Prompt Flows into warm, structured,
step-by-step self-help conversations you can have anytime, anywhere.
Why This Book is Different
Most self-help books talk at you.
This one talks with you.
Instead of passively reading tips, you’ll use AI Coaching Prompt Flows — ready-to-use scripts you paste into any free AI chat to start a supportive, personalised conversation.
You’ll be guided through:
- Noticing what you feel
- Understanding it with compassion
- Choosing one small, meaningful action
“This book didn’t talk at me — it walked beside me.” — Emma, 29

Prefer a gentle beginning?
If you’d like a small, gentle introduction before diving into the book, you can try the Free Self-Compassion Prompt Flow — a soft, psychologist-designed taste of the ACT + AI approach inside the e-book.
Try the Free Self-Compassion Flow →I didn’t expect to enjoy a self-help book this much! What makes AI for Self-Help stand out is how down-to-earth and kind it feels. The exercises don’t pressure you, they invite you. The AI prompts are fun to use and gave me insights I honestly didn’t think a “chat with AI” could bring. It feels modern, creative, and at the same time very human. A beautiful mix of guidance and encouragement that left me hopeful and motivated.
I’ve tried many selfhelp tools before, but Talk2Tessa is on another level. It feels like having a psychologist in your pocket, always clear and supportive. The flows give structure, so you actually move toward calm and self-compassion. It’s practical and so easy to use. Honestly, the best investment I’ve made for my mental well-being.
This book is such a refreshing mix of psychology and practical tools. I love how it explains ACT and self-compassion in a down-to-earth way, and then immediately gives you copy-paste flows you can try with AI. It feels both professional and very approachable like having a coach in your pocket. Definitely recommend for anyone interested in personal growth with a modern twist.
