Manual clínico de terapia centrada en la compasión

Compassion Centered Therapy (CFT) helps clients develop kindness and compassion for themselves and others, work with feelings of shame and self-criticism, and increase regulation of emotions and tolerance of distress. However, the theoretical principles underlying CFT -evolutionary psychology, attachment theory, and affect neuroscience- may seem impressive. As clinicians interested in CFT, we need an easy-to-use guide to help us apply it immediately. This book contains everything you need to start implementing CFT in practice, either as the main therapeutic modality or as a complementary approach to other therapies. In it we will find practical tools to help clients cultivate self-pity, learn mindfulness skills and balance troubled emotions. The text exposes the theoretical foundation of therapy in clear and accessible language and provides us with strategies and practical guidance on how to adapt the CFT approach to different client populations.
