Kristin Neff, PhD

Pioneering researcher, Kristin Neff is the author of Self-Compassion. Based on over a decade of research into the topic, Dr. Neff has written numerous academic articles on how developing self-compassion more than self-esteem leads to a healthier, more effective path to happiness. An Associate Professor of Human Development and Culture at the University of Texas, Austin, Kristen’s story of her family’s journey to Mongolia where they trekked on horseback to find healing for her autistic son was the basis for the bestselling book and award-winning documentary The Horse Boy.
