Dr. Paul Gilbert and Dr. Dennis Tirch
Anxiety is not your fault. I am working with Dr. Dennis Tirch, the associate director of the American Institute for Cognitive Therapy and forward author Dr. Paul Gilbert, the co-creator of compassion-based therapy (CFT) on their new book The Compassionate-Mind Guide to Overcoming Anxiety. Their approach includes everything your listeners need to learn mindfulness and compassion-focused skills for redirecting their anxious thoughts and allowing themselves to enjoy a more peaceful life.
Dr. Paul Gilbert and Dr. Dennis Tirch are available for interviews to explain how building compassion for oneself and for others improves emotion regulation and decreases anxiety and depression. Some examples of the insight Dr. Tirch and Dr. Gilbert can touch on in an interview include:
· What is compassion-focused therapy (CFT) and what disorders and conditions this form of psychotherapy is used to treat
· The evolution of anxiety and where it manifests itself in day-to-day life
· How mindfulness and compassion are linked and improve emotional regulation
· Acknowledging and facing your fears
· Focusing and achieving your goals
There are many factors that contribute to developing a mind that is prone to intense anxiety, and if your listeners have such a mind, there are many things they can do to change the way it works.
