About the Event
Session Description
Empathic resonance is one of the core pieces of Self-of-Provider models (such as Aponte’s POTTS model) for mental health and medical providers. It can promote strong therapeutic relationships between the client/patient and provider, enhance the provider’s abilities to assess and intervene, and increase the provider’s sense of altruism and efficacy. However, problems with empathy, including dependence on cognitive empathy and development of empathic distress, can undermine the therapeutic process by increasing both the client’s and provider’s emotional distance and sense of isolation. It can also contribute to emotional burnout on the part of the provider. The affective experience of empathic distress will be described, as will the neurological process of empathic distress.
Learning Objectives:

- Recognize and enhance useful forms of empathy
