Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT)
What is Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT)?
Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT) helps people who experience strong self-criticism, shame or difficult emotions. It focuses on developing self-compassion and learning how to respond to yourself with greater understanding and kindness.
By building these skills, CFT can help reduce distress, improve emotional regulation and support a greater sense of safety and wellbeing.
CFT can be helpful for:
Low self-esteem and self-criticism
Feelings of shame or guilt
Anxiety and excessive worry
Depression and low mood
Difficulties with emotional regulation
Trauma and past experiences
Stress and burnout
Perfectionism and fear of failure
By strengthening self-compassion and emotional awareness, CFT can help reduce distress and support a greater sense of emotional balance and wellbeing.
