More Description Empathy: The Art of Effective Chaplaincy, A companion in the Darkness is a book for chaplains, aspiring chaplains, or anyone else who desires to engage effectively with anyone in crisis. If you want to develop the ability to create a 'space' between you and another, with a non-anxious presence, and the skills to enter into their world through the use of advanced empathy, then this book is for you. This book not only outlines the theory, but also the practical skills you can apply to be more skillful, more elegant and effective when responding to anyone in distress. You'll find how to respond to loss, respond with empathy rather than sympathy, exercises and frameworks in how to identify a person's feelings and respond to them so they feel heard and understood. The method that you will learn in this book utilizes a combination of empathic responses and the 'containment' of all the elements in our usual conversing which gets in the way of building that deeper connection. It's incredibly helpful to anyone in any role: teacher, parent, manager, friend, or partner who wants to know how to quickly connect and build a relationship of trust and rapport with those they love, care about, and work with.
