The Dialogic Approach

Empathy Transforms Relationships

Rachelle Carrié Season 2 Episode 7

What does all of this mean, and why bother empathizing if it means that I will shoulder their pain and carry it with me into another space?!

Empathy is a skill that can be learned.

It is the ability to understand and share another person's feelings, thoughts, and experiences. It involves recognizing emotions in others, being sensitive to their feelings, and responding in a supportive and compassionate manner. Empathy can be cognitive (understanding someone’s perspective) or emotional (feeling what another person feels).


Does that make sense?

Where do you fall short, or what happened to you when you did have empathy in a dialogue?
