What is the difference between "engagement" and "interaction"?

Hello there!

Could you explane me what is the difference between these words:

- engagement;

- interaction.

(contex: two people interact with each other)

(examples from psychoanalytic paper: "...I will describe a treatment approach that emphasizes an unobtrusive and companioning analytic engagement and illustrate this with a desription of a case." / "...in treatments of patients dominated by a dissociative structure, the engagement with intrapsychic conflict is the sigh that treatment is reaching a successful end...")

Thank you!

Home task #1 "Name of company: VocationVacations. Service: holidays where you can try doing different jobs" 1) What is special about the company? My answer: This company offers us a great opportunity to try different jobs. It can helps us to discover our own vocation and chhose partiular profession we would be fond of. 2) Who do you think uses its services? I think these services are used by young people who try to find their own ways of life. This type of experience (when you can use your capasities in different fields, taste the ingredients of a specific profession, see particular job from the inside) can help the yough to know themselves better to some extent, to see their true interests, wishes, passions etc. more clearly. It helps them build more realistic image (view) of themselves, different jobs and their possibilites within modern world.

Formulating sentenses with new words #1 I try to stay in touch with modern psychological psychotherapic and neurobiological studies. It helps me in my profession I draw on this knowledge in my psychotherapic work with people. Ufortunately most of them (most of it/most og this information?) are in English. This is one of motivational factros for learning English for me. In addtion to that (furthermore?) I try to acqyaint some of my collegues who doesn`t know English with information I get from this books and articles. Me and my wife like cooking meals at home. Because we can cook it in accordance to our taste preferences. So we have tasty and healthy meals. But when we were younger we used to eat out. But now we go to restaraunts rarely. By the way I`ve crossed fastfood off my life. But honestly speaking I can eat there once a few months. As far as I can remember I always love nature. I lived in a small town and me and my friends used to climb trees lying on the grass etc. I like to watch at tree crawns especialy when a slight breeze rustles their leaves.
