Self-disgust, self-hatred, and compassion-focused therapy
Overview
This chapter explores the connections between self-disgust, anger, and hatred, examining how these emotions contribute to self-criticism and psychopathology. It outlines the theoretical basis for Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT) as a treatment approach aimed at shifting internal dialogue from hostile tones to supportive ones. The resource is intended for readers interested in the psychological mechanisms of shame and the application of CFT.
