Episode Seven: Are You Listening?
Manage episode 331437585 series 3314251
In this episode, Dr. Janys Murphy Rising discusses how you can tell if your therapist is listening. Janys describes how therapists do much more than listen, as well as actively listen. She describes what attending skills look like in therapy, as well as validation, and busts the myth that therapists are just paid listeners. They break down active listening, and mindfulness which is a key part of active listening by being present with another person and engaging one mindfully.
