Is that really true? Dr. Patric Gagne is a diagnosed sociopath and also a successful clinical psychologist. She claims her lack of empathy for patients allows her to help them solve their problems in an objective manner. I don't have any personal experience in that area and don't know if she's correct but it seems plausible.

- pseudalopex 11mo ago> Dr. Patric Gagne is a diagnosed sociopath and also a successful clinical psychologist. She is not a psychologist now according to her page. And how do you know she was successful? I skimmed a few articles about her and saw no attempts to verify her claims. She offered no evidence when asked why people should believe her.
- nradov 11mo agoHow do you know that empathetic psychologists were successful? We don't have good data or how important that is for patient outcomes so we should be skeptical of claims that empathy is essential.
- pseudalopex 11mo agoAsking questions about claims I did not make is not an answer.
- nradov 11mo agoYour question was poorly posed. If you want answers then ask better questions.
- pseudalopex 11mo agoYou made a claim. I asked evidence. Few questions are simpler.
- sschueller 11mo agoThat is exactly what a sociopath would say isn't it? Without an actual study by a trusted institute I would highly question such claims.
- nradov 11mo agoSure. And I would also question claims that empathy is necessary for good patient outcomes. We don't have solid data on that either way.
