Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Paul Lerner was an amazing clinician and teacher, and he wrote that empathy was the "heart" of his particular approach to psychological assessment. In this article, I discuss 3 meanings of empathy: (a) as an information-gathering tool, (b) as an interpersonal process, and (c) as a healing element in human interactions. I then demonstrate how each of these meanings of empathy is exemplified in Lerner's written work and in collaborative and therapeutic assessment. |
