Dangerous listening

Description:

Dangerous listening is a therapeutic form that means listening so hard that you actually participate in the client's fears, dreams, confusion and perversions. It is dangerous because you expose yourself to qualities of the mentally ill. This includes the inability to conform to traditional norms or even to think logically, even though you do not buy into what the client believes to be unchangeable facts.
