An online compassionate imagery intervention for veterinarian mental health: a pilot study
For my empirical paper I am investigating the effectiveness and feasibility of an online two-week compassionate imagery intervention for reducing high level of self-criticism and perfectionism amongst veterinarians. Prior to this I conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of 20 randomised controlled trials of self-compassion related interventions to assess their effectiveness at reducing self-criticism.
