Memory Hack Review
Empathy is conveyed in non-verbal ways such
Memory Hack as tearing or a frown if the clients feeling is sadness. Keep in mind that empathy must also be genuinely felt and genuinely mirrored. Any insincerity from the counselor will erode the clients feeling of safety.
Essentially I will be mirroring the emotional content or the emotions of my client whether the feeling is anger sadness fear or some other feeling. Some counselors have said that empathy is the most therapeutic counselor quality because it lends support to the clients pain.
Empathy may also be conveyed verbally in the voice tone. And so I will speak with empathic reflections. This is a statement that reflects back what the client has been saying accompanied by a feeling word. An empathic reflective statement would be So youre feeling sad because your good friend just moved away is that what youre feeling
When you as the counselor show tears what does the client perceive Is the client going to think you dont really understand or is he going to become defensive If your tears are an accurate reflection of the clients feeling and if your expression of feeling is a little bit less than the clients expression of feeling your empathy is likely to be accepted as support. However something else that may happen is that the clients own engagement of emotion is scary for him so that he withdraws. This is an issue of the clients not feeling safe with himself or perhaps with you which I will speak about in a few minutes.
