Dr Chris Irons - CFT Trainer
Hi, i’m Chris. I’m a clinical psychologist specialising in Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT) and Compassionate Mind Training (CMT).
I’ve been fortunate to work with the developer of CFT – Professor Paul Gilbert – for over 25 years. I’ve given hundreds of CFT workshops, to over 15,000 participants in 25 countries across the world.
I’ve published many research papers and book chapters on CFT, along with a number of CFT books, including: The Compassionate Mind Workbook, The Compassionate Mind Approach to Difficult Emotions, and CFT from the Inside Out. Recently i’ve released The Self-Compassion App with Elaine Beaumont, based upon the Compassionate Mind Workbook.
