Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Subtractive empathy involves giving back less than what the client has said, in order to allow the client to explore and elaborate on their own thoughts and feelings. The counselor may paraphrase the client's words or ask open-ended questions to invite further exploration, rather than adding their own opinions or experiences.
