Learning to Listen
Essential Skills for Every Counselor
If we are to love well, we must listen well to the person. If the person invites us into their lives, it is a privilege to hear their pain, distress, anxiety, and frustration.
In Learning to Listen: Essential Skills for Every Counselor, Joseph Hussang guides readers in listening well. He explores three areas: the purpose of listening, the posture of the listener, and the skill of listening.
Hussang gently and wisely reflects on how we tend to make mistakes when listening, and then guides the reader to develop compassionate and skilful ways of listening that demonstrate love and care.
An excellent resource.
