Humanistic/Experiential therapy focuses on the client’s here-and-now, present moment, felt, emotional experiencing. The term “Empathic Attunement” refers to the process by which the therapist homes in on this. Clinicians of any orientation can benefit from increasing attunement as it supports the therapeutic alliance and energizes the session.

In this workshop, we’ll learn and practice central theory and skills of empathy:
- Understanding
- Affirmation
- Exploration
- Conjecture
- Evocation
