Kimberley Wilson is on a mission to sift through all the information and misinformation that’s out there around our mental health to help create more self-awareness and understanding.

As a chartered psychologist herself, she invites expert guests - trained psychologists, psychiatrists and psychotherapists - to join her and together they share insight and valuable tips.

In this episode, Kimberley explores empathy with clinical psychologist Dr Martha Deiros Collado. Do you have too much empathy or too little, and what does the right amount of empathy look like?

Please get in touch if there’s anything you would like Kimberley to explore. The email address is complex@bbc.co.uk. We might use what you tell us in the show, but we will do so anonymously. If you don’t want your email to be included in the podcast, then please remember to let us know.

Kimberley is not able to answer emails personally. If you are concerned you have a medical or mental health issue, then please contact your GP or seek expert help. Please also take a look on the BBC Actionline page: https://www.bbc.co.uk/actionline/ where you can find details of organisations offering information and support for common issues.
