Empath Heart: Relationship Strategies for Sensitive People by Richardson, Tanya Carroll

Empath Heart by Tanya Carroll Richardson focuses on relationships for people who identify as highly sensitive or empathic. It considers patterns such as rescuing, codependency and people-pleasing in friendships, family, work and romantic partnerships.

Quizzes, exercises and mantras accompany suggestions for boundaries, assertiveness and supportive connection. The author’s language of energy and intuition provides a spiritual perspective rather than a clinical diagnosis of sensitivity.
