As the founder of compassion-focused therapy (CFT), Paul Gilbert brings a fresh perspective on compassion as a source of courage and wisdom to address suffering. In this conversation with Maitreyabandhu, they explore how humans are designed to thrive on kindness, and what this means in today's world.
Paul Gilbert is a British clinical psychologist and author of several books on the topic. He is currently a Professor at the University of Derby. In 2011 Gilbert was awarded the Order of the British Empire (OBE) for his continued contribution to mental healthcare.
