Founder
I am Dr. Kate Lucre, Psychotherapist, Trainer and Researcher. My clinical model is underpinned by interconnected aspects of attachment theory, psychotherapeutic practice and the power of the unconcious. It is rooted in the evolutionary foundations of Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT), with thoughtful adaptations to ensure accessibility for all.
The search for these adaptations has led me to psychodrama, group analysis, and therapeutic communities. Over the course of my career, I have had the privilege of learning from, working within, and training in each of these traditions. Mobilising Compassion represents what I hope is a respectful and integrated blend of these models, grounded in compassion, informed by relational depth, and shaped by collective therapeutic experience.

Mobilising Compassion
"It is not enough to BE compassionate, you must act."
Jack Kornfield
Compassion is more than a simple emotional response, it is a powerful motivational system that drives meaningful action. Rather than merely feeling sympathy for others, true compassion requires the engagement of mind, body, and values to produce deliberate and thoughtful responses to suffering. To mobilise compassion is to actively turn towards difficulty, rather than avoid it, demonstrating courage and commitment in the face of hardship. In this way, compassion becomes a dynamic force that not only recognises suffering but also seeks to alleviate it through purposeful and wise action.
From a deep awareness and sensitivity to suffering, I have been motivated to develop a therapeutic model and now to share it. My intention is to offer a practical, helpful and illuminating experiences to all those who wish to join in. I also hope that an infusion of playfulness and a light touch demonstrates how enlivening this work can be for us all. My compassionate wish to all is that you find it helpful in supporting your own journey in compassion.
