February 2023 Clinical Supervision Topic: Empathy!

Oh wow, this is our fifth time talking about empathy. I’m so proud of us and all of our collective hard work over the years.

Check out:

2018 and the Brene Brown video I love;

2020 and the episode from Dr. David Puder;

2021 and the Carl Rogers article;

2022 and the excerpt from The Heart & Soul of Change;

and 2023 how empathy is connected to the vagus nerve.

Here’s what I most want to know:

When has someone shown you great empathy? Was it mixed with compassion, or separate?

When do you most feel safe and connected in your interactions with clients?

Take your hardest client: describe what they would say is their most difficult challenge right now.

See you all soon.
