Write a reflection
in which you define each of the above concepts and reflect on your use of
each. Provide an example of each
following the structure below.
(Definition)
Advanced empathy can be defined as a deeper, more intuitive awareness of
another person’s experience… (reference). (Example) For example, in a
conversation with a friend the other day he mentioned his father a few times.
My response was, “you’ve mentioned your dad three or four times but never go
into details. I’m wondering if that is a
difficult area for you to discuss.” This is an example of advanced empathy in
because my friend may not have been aware that he was not fully expressing
himself. (Reflection) This was a good
demonstration of advanced empathy because I used the phrase ‘I am wondering’
and I did not say I think you have issues with your Dad.
