Description: # Reflective Listening
        
        This API generates reflective listening statements by way of paraphrasing. Reflective listening is one of the four
        techniques used in Motivational Interviewing, a counselling method commonly used to promote behavioural change.
        
        Therapists use reflective listening to convey understanding of one's issue, demonstrating empathy,
        allowing the chatbot to engage the user better, build trust, and foster motivation to change in the person.
        
        ## Example
        
        This API allows conversational agents to reflectively listen to the user they're talking to. For example:
        
        - User: "Today is a bad day, I'm feeling lonely"
        - Chatbot's reflective listening response: "I understand, seems you are feeling lonely on a bad day."
        
        ## Quickstart
        
        #### Installation
        
        ```shell
        pip install reflective-listening
        ```
        
        #### How to use
        
        ```python
        from reflective_listening import ReflectiveListening
        
        reflector = ReflectiveListening()
        print(reflector.get_response("Today is a bad day, I'm feeling lonely"))
        ```
        
        Output:
        ```
        "I understand, seems like you are feeling lonely on a bad day."
        ```
