Training Compassion for Mental Health

Compassion is the warm-hearted concern that unfolds when we witness the struggles of others and feel motivated to relieve them. Research suggests that compassion is innate and any of us can strengthen this capacity through deliberate practice, with benefits for self, for others, and for society.

This ground-breaking guide offers a research-based, trauma-informed approach to compassion training for people seeking to improve their mental health.

This guide is designed to support the CBCT® for Mental Health course, taught by licensed mental health professionals who are also Emory-certified CBCT teachers.
