    Développée par le Pr Paul Gilbert, la Thérapie Fondée sur la Compassion (TFC) est une approche intégrative, processuelle, transdiagnostique et biopsychosociale qui s’intègre à la troisième vague des TCC. Elle se situe à l’interface de la psychologie évolutionniste, des thérapies cognitives, des neurosciences et en s’appuyant sur différentes théories dont la théorie de l’attachement. La TFC se propose de cultiver la compassion par des pratiques de visualisation, de méditation de pleine conscience, de respiration ou encore de travail de chaises. Elle a été développée pour des personnes souffrant de problèmes psychologiques complexes et souvent chroniques, dominés par le sentiment de honte et l’autocritique, et associés à des antécédents de maltraitance ou de carences psychoaffectives. Elle est indiquée, entre autres, pour les troubles anxieux, dépressifs, bipolaires, de la personnalité ou des conduites alimentaires, etc.Les auteurs ont par leur travail pionnier fait connaître la TFC en France et contribué à sa diffusion auprès de la communauté des thérapeutes. L’ouvrage expose les bases théoriques et cliniques de la méthode, avant de détailler le déroulé de la thérapie, séance par séance.Cet ouvrage est étayé par des enregistrements audio (exemples de visualisations et de méditations), constituant un véritable guide pratique pour se former à la thérapie.L’ouvrage s’adresse aux psychothérapeutes, psychologues, psychiatres et autres professionnels de santé désireux de se former à cette thérapie ou à approfondir leurs connaissances.
