Description

This contribution to the helping professions delves into empathy as a cornerstone of personal life as well as professional practice. Renowned contributors from various mental health disciplines - psychiatry, counselling, psychology and social work - discuss such themes as the interrelationship of empathy with love, self-awareness and self transformation. The application of specific techniques includes the use of writing to foster empathy; empathy therapy with different populations - children, adolescents the elderly; families; and how to bridge cultural differences in empathy therapy.
