    The best introduction to CFT so far
  

*by G***O on Reviewed in the United States on August 1, 2016*

This book is probably the most accessible and practical introduction available to Compassion-Focused Therapy. As Paul Gilbert (founder of CFT) says in the foreword of this book, CFT is actually not a “simple” therapy as its theoretical underpinnings integrate a rich variety of ideas and research (including evolutionary psychology, CBT, Jungian psychology, attachment theory and Mahayana Buddhism) and the clinical practice of CFT asks from the therapist a broad set of skills, from empathic micro-skills to guiding visualizations. The prowess of this didactic and entertaining book is that it organizes this potentially daunting CFT theoretical framework and therapeutic skills into what Kolts presents as a set of layered processes and practices. These four layers include: the therapeutic relationship as the context where compassion can be experienced and trained; an evolutionary and contextual understanding of the mind and the brain; the cultivation of mindfulness of one’s own motivations, thoughts, emotions, and behavior; and compassionate mind training through a variety of exercises and home practices. As a CFT trained clinician, I have found this way of organizing the practice of CFT very useful for myself and my clients, and I think it will also be very appreciated by future CFT trainees. Additionally, and in a very coherent manner, the author’s voice throughout the book is warm, friendly, and clear, weaving together key concepts, relevant research, practical exercises, and clinical vignettes, offering a lively idea not only of what this therapy is about but also how this therapy might “feel” as a therapist or as a client.I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in learning more about compassion and bringing it as a core motivation in their clinical work.Gonzalo Brito, Ph.D. Co-author of The Mindfulness-Based Emotional Balance Workbook.

    Absolutely Excellent
  

*by A***L on Reviewed in the United States on October 30, 2019*

I had Kolts as a professor and reading the book alone explained enough to do well in the class. Material is excellent and fascinating even as a non-psychology major and even outside of the course has helped me to become an even more compassionate listener to friends and family which is an extra plus!

    Integrative Psychotherapy
  

*by A***H on Reviewed in the United States on April 1, 2018*

Compassion-focused therapy (CFT) is a cutting edge psychotherapy with a simple name, and a comprehensive approach. Do not let the name fool you, this an integrative therapy that takes seriously the criticisms of traditional CBT, as well as the demands of evidence-based practice and is worth your read.Dr. Russell Kolts is a world class explicator and his writing makes an honest title of the book. Dr. Kolts takes the complexities of an approach that includes CBT, attachment theory, evolutionary psychology, and compassion, and makes it accessible without ever condescending to the reader. This is hard to accomplish writing on such subjects, but he does so gracefully.Whether you are new to the field of psychotherapy or an experience veteran, CFT Made Simple is an accessible read with a unique perspective and wealth of clinical interventions for all therapist and case managers.
