Psychotherapeutic benefits of compassion-focused therapy: an early systematic review
Overview
This early systematic review summarizes research on Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT) for individuals with mental health issues related to shame and self-criticism. It analyzes fourteen studies, including three randomized controlled trials, noting generally favorable findings for those high in self-criticism. The resource indicates that while CFT shows promise for mood disorders, further large-scale trials are needed before it can be considered evidence-based practice.
