On the first episode of season 2 Matthew speaks with Professor Paul Gilbert OBE. Paul is the founder of compassion focused therapy (CFT) – a type of psychotherapy that integrates evolutionary psychology, Jungian archetypes, neuroscience and Buddhist psychology. Paul is also the founder of the compassionate mind foundation.
Matthew and Paul discuss Paul’s journey into psychology and what led him to develop CFT, brain state theory and upholding a bio-psychosocial approach, and dispelling myths about what compassion actually means and more. Enjoy!
