ABOUT DR. KRISTIN NEFF: Kristin studied communications as an undergraduate at the
University of California at Los Angeles. She did her graduate work at University of California
at Berkeley, studying moral development with Dr. Elliot Turiel. Her dissertation research was
conducted in Mysore, India, where she examined children’s moral reasoning. She then spent
two years of post-doctoral study with Dr. Susan Harter at Denver University, studying issues
of authenticity and self-concept development. She is currently an Associate Professor at the
University of Texas at Austin. During Kristin’s last year of graduate school she became
interested in Buddhism, and has been practicing meditation in the Insight Meditation
tradition ever since. While doing her post-doctoral work she decided to conduct research
on self-compassion — a central construct in Buddhist psychology and one that had not yet
been examined empirically. In addition to her pioneering research into self-compassion,
she has developed an 8-week program to teach self-compassion skills. The program, cocreated
with her colleague Chris Germer, affiliated with Harvard Medical School, is called
“Mindful Self-Compassion”. Her book,” Self-Compassion,” was published by William
Morrow in April, 2011.
