There are quite a few benefits, if you are good at active listening. The listener truly must focus on what the speaker is saying - both verbally and non-verbally. All opinions and solutions that pop up in the listener's head must be kept silent. The speaker is much more free to express himself. When the listener responds with comments like, "You really feel hurt." or "You believe she treats you unfairly." or "You're saying this is very difficult for you." -- the speaker feels validated and understood, or the speaker can correct the listener's perception. "Venting" for the speaker is much shorter and does not lead to an argument with the listener, because there is no disagreement - only rephrasing of what the speaker just said. Again, if you are skilled in active listening, you can non-judgmentally guide the speaker to find his/her own solution, or simply to accept and move on.

Active listening requires participation of the listener. He listens and reacts or acts out the words being read to him. There is an observable change in the person who is listening and reacting.
