Emotion in the Clinical Encounter

The foundational knowledge and practical actions you need to effectively address your patients’ emotions—and manage your own. Emotions are ever-present in the context of illness and medical care and can have an enormous impact on the well-being of patients and healthcare providers alike. Despite this impact, emotions are often devalued in a medical culture that praises stoicism and analytical reasoning. Featuring the latest theories and research on emotion in healthcare, this much-needed resource will help you build the necessary skillset to navigate the extraordinary emotional demands of practicing medicine.  

Emotion in the Clinical Encounter will help you:

  • Learn the science of emotion, as it relates to clinical care
  • Understand the role of emotion in illness
  • Recognize the connection between clinical response to patient emotions and
    care outcomes
  • Develop effective strategies for emotion recognition
  • Build strong emotional dialogue skills for medical encounters
  • Identify biases that may shape clinical interactions and subsequent outcomes
  • Understand emotion regulation in patients, providers, and in the clinical relationship
  • Address challenges and opportunities for clinical emotional wellness
