Compassionate Mind Ireland was established in October of 2018. One of our initial aims was to create a committee with representation from across the island of Ireland. A further aim is to foster the growth of a community of trained compassion focused therapists and researchers in Ireland. We know that many of our Irish colleagues have not had the opportunity to travel to the UK to participate in CMF training, and so we have prioritised bringing CFT training to Ireland. We are also working, with the CMF, to develop a cohort of Irish trainers to deliver the core components of the training offered by the Foundation, but to do so in the context of the Irish healthcare system. In addition, we work with the Foundation to bring their established trainers to Ireland.
Our trainers are also available for bespoke training. If you are interested in CFT and would like to get involved in Compassionate Mind Ireland, please contact our Chair, Dr.Róisín Joyce, at róisín@ebtc.ie.
