| The Power of Empathy shows how people can use empathy as an assessment tool in all their relationships. Empathy can signal when people are well-intentioned and when they are deceitful. It can shield people from manipulative strangers and strengthen the bonds between loved ones. It is an emotion that has been overlooked, underused, and misunderstood for too long. Both prescriptive and narrative, The Power of Empathy provides a practical framework for anyone to use empathy to better his or her life.
Dr. Arthur Ciaramicoli believes that empathy is the driving force behind love-and that its power goes vastly unrecognized by most people. His book, The Power of Empathy, is an important new resource for people who hope to enrich their emotional lives, improve their communication skills, and explore the spiritual dimensions of the human capacity for love. While traditional relationship books emphasize loving each other and oneself, Ciaramicoli and Ketcham argue that they overlook the critical fact that love itself needs help-and that empathy is the solution. But empathy can do more than attract and foster love

Jason Aronson; ISBN: 0765700875 ;
Dimensions (in inches): 0.87 x 8.51 x 5.76
The publisher , January 13, 1998 Dr. Arthur Ciaramicoli articulates a holistic model for cost-effective, outpatient treatment of clients whose multiple presenting problems include patterns of addiction following histories of abuse. A strong therapeutic alliance and a clear map of expectations are crucial to movement from the level of medically acute care toward sustained, elective, supportive care. Recognizing the interaction of intrapsychic, interpersonal, and societal dynamics, Dr. Ciaramicoli's design relies on both individual and group modalities to build self-esteem. Toward consolidating, stabilizing, and enriching the therapeutic gains, it endorses a spectrum of alternative tools from physical fitness and herbal medicine to spirituality.
