Feeling Good Podcast | TEAM-CBT - The New Mood Therapy

NOTE

Expectations of Empathy Can Underestimate Reality

Individuals facing significant mood challenges often predict lower levels of warmth and support from their social circles, averaging a score of 45 on a scale of 0 to 100. They anticipate receiving slightly more empathy from apps like Feeling Great, estimating around 55, yet the actual experience surpasses expectations at 85. This trend indicates that technology and AI can provide levels of empathy that may exceed that received from friends and professionals. Despite long-standing ideals about the essential role of empathy in therapy, research shows that merely providing care is often insufficient for change, highlighting the complexity of therapeutic effectiveness.
