  • How compassion helps us transcend anxiety | Dennis Tirch (And other fascinating insights) [FROM THE YOUTUBE VAULT]

    [This episode with Dr Dennis Tirch is from a YouTube episode aired on 14 June 2024. It is released here as a podcast to compliment the episode with Dr Jodi Richardson, which discussed understanding and managing anxiety and the role of self-compassion, released last Friday (22 November 2024).]

    What is the difference between THE BRAIN AND THE MIND? What is CONSCIOUSNESS? Given all of this, WHAT IS SUFFERING? How can cultivating compassion help us to alleviate suffering in both ourselves, each other, and the world? And what about if we focus in on anxiety…HOW CAN WE UNDERSTAND AND OVERCOME ANXIETY USING COMPASSION FOCUSED THERAPY?

    Dr Dennis Tirch, Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT) therapist, supervisor, trainer and author, discusses neuroscience, ancient wisdom, music, suffering and compassion in this time and space spanning conversation. He reflects on therapy and what it means to be helpful. And he explores fear and anxiety and practical strategies that bring mindfulness and compassion to our anxiety so that we might suffer less.

  • Mastering compassion focused therapy | Wendy Wood (As a compassionate learner) [FROM THE YOUTUBE VAULT]

    [This episode with Dr Wendy Wood is from a YouTube episode aired on 28 June 2024. It is released here as a podcast to compliment the episode with Dr Kerensa Hocken, which discussed Compassion Focused Therapy in forensice populations, released last Friday (15 November 2024).]

    One of my most watched videos is WHAT IS COMPASSION FOCUSED THERAPY, from back in 2020! In this video, I speak with Dr Wendy Wood from The Compassionate Mind Foundation (CMF) about LEARNING COMPASSION FOCUSED THERAPY.

    Wendy has a long history teaching and supervising psychotherapy and counselling, and has helped create the DIPLOMA IN COMPASSION FOCUSED THERAPY at CMF. And the diploma course beautifully integrates CFT principles into its admissions, tuition and assessment, so that people can thrive and become part of a supportive community.

    She mentions CFT and chair work, trauma, forensic populations, running CFT in groups, masterclasses, case studies, supervision and the role for deliberate practice. For anyone interested in becoming a CFT therapist, the diploma course at CMF is definitely a great way to go!
