Initial suggestions
Thanks for tackling this topic. Some initial suggestions:


 * Check out other chapters and see how you can build on, link to, and integrate with that work.

Let me know if I can do anything else as you go along.

 * Hi @U3224924: Great topic, especially from a counselling/psychotherapy perspective where empathy is a crucial element. From my experience as a counselling student, I always found this short video of Dr Brene Brown's take on empathy vs sympathy to be an excellent and succinct introduction to how empathy drives connection - a simple introduction to empathy training? Perhaps you could link to this video in your chapter?
 * RSA. (2013, December 10). Brené Brown on empathy [Video]. YouTube; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Evwgu369Jw&t=1s.
 * Good luck, sincerely, Andrew U3235369 (discuss • contribs) 10:36, 22 August 2023 (UTC)

Great topic. Was wondering if there are any situations in which empathy may not be beneficial?
Is it always adaptive in social settings? Does it have any impacts on the individual who is displaying empathy? --U3230491 (discuss • contribs) 08:59, 23 August 2023 (UTC)

Feedback and suggestions
Hey! This is such an interesting topic and I think you did a really great job of explaining the importance of empathy training.
 * I have made some suggestions in your chapter to include more peer reviewed references. I think this would really strengthen a lot of the great points you made.
 * I think you could also benefit from cutting out the background section on the importance of empathy training and really hone in on how motivational theory explains the importance of empathy training.

Overall, I think this is a great chapter! Good luck :) Dana --Dnamynts (discuss • contribs) 16:40, 8 October 2023 (UTC)
