Shaniqua was accepted by three different universities and is now having difficulty deciding which university to attend. she decides to ask her friend, maria, for her help. maria listens intently and provides an interpretation of the problem, which helps shaniqua solve her dilemma. what type of supportive response did maria utilize?

Respuesta :

Maria utilized empathic listening. Maria listened intently in order to understand Shaniqua's feelings and emotions before giving her advice. This type of listening requires a deep connection to the speaker to help them vent out or express their feelings more. Counselors and therapists often used this technique to elicit openness and initiate conversation and lighten up their moods so they can verbalize their pent-up feelings.
