Скачать или смотреть Why Tough Love Doesn’t Work for Hoarding | Chia-Ying Chou

In this episode of Compassion in a T-Shirt, I sit down with Dr. Chia-Ying Chou, a UCSF-trained psychologist and leading specialist in hoarding and cluttering. Chia-Ying combines Compassion Focused Therapy with years of clinical and research expertise to help people move beyond shame, self-criticism, and avoidance.

Together, we explore:
. What hoarding really is — beyond just “too much stuff.”
. The emotional roots of hoarding, including shame and fear.
. How Compassionate Mind Training (CMT) can build the courage and inner strength needed to face these challenges.
. Practical skills and strategies for creating a kinder, more supportive relationship with ourselves.

Chia-Ying also shares details of her upcoming CMT workshops, offering hope and practical guidance for anyone struggling with clutter, or supporting a loved one who is.

✨ If you’ve ever wondered how compassion can transform the way we relate to ourselves and our possessions, this conversation is for you.
