Compassion in a T-Shirt: In Session with Alison Dixon
31 May 2021
"It was about the connection with other people, not feeling alone, other people understanding how I feel...the humanness." Alison Dixon is a senior Psychological Therapist and supervisor in the UK, and has worked in NHS psychology services for over 10 years. She works with people experiencing a wide range of difficulties and specializes in addressing longstanding relationship problems. She has published research in compassion-focused therapy (CFT), runs CFT and mindfulness groups and has co-facilitated workshops on the use of compassion-focused chairwork. She is also simply a delightful human being. I hope you enjoy my conversation in session with my friend Alison Dixon!
