Previously, we looked at the issues of compassion and empathy. We shall now look at how mindfulness and psychotherapy interact.

Previously we discussed empathy, social bonding, and trauma. The article ended with an example of a colleague of mine who, upon hearing the account of a young refugee’s traumatic past, went into a state of shock herself.
