What Is Compassion Focused Therapy?
Compassion-focused therapy (CFT) aims to help individuals improve their mental health by developing the compassion they have for themselves and others.
CFT has been found to be helpful for those who find it difficult to experience, understand or express compassion. Therapy is used as a way to understand why this is and attempt to make change.
