As a social worker, I think empathy plays an important role in our workplace. Without empathy, we cannot take service recipients’ perspectives and then cannot provide suitable service to them. my question is, I want to further investigate the topic related to empathy, are there any resources that I can utilize? Thank you.

Most welcome!

My heartfelt gratitude.
