This means that the client is not just a passive recipient of treatment, but rather an active participant who has a say in their own healing journey. It promotes a sense of empowerment and collaboration between the therapist and the client, allowing for better engagement and commitment to the treatment plan. This approach acknowledges the client's autonomy and encourages their involvement in decision-making, leading to better outcomes.

    A. Tell the client to stop
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "tell the client to stop." When dealing with emotional releases, it is important to be present for the client and ensure their comfort level. However, telling the client to stop their emotional release can be counterproductive and may hinder their healing process. Instead, it is more effective to provide support and guide the client through breathing exercises or other techniques that can help them process their emotions in a healthy way.

Effective communication involves collaboration, cooperation, and sharing of information among team members. Unhealthy competition can lead to a breakdown in communication, hinder teamwork, and negatively impact patient care. It is important for therapists to work together, support each other, and focus on the best interests of the client rather than engaging in unhealthy competition.

    Choosing when to apply hygiene practices is not part of defining your own roles and boundaries. Defining your own roles and boundaries typically involves determining factors such as the number of hours and days you work, as well as the individuals you agree to treat. However, the decision of when to apply hygiene practices is generally guided by professional standards and regulations, rather than being a personal choice that falls under defining roles and boundaries.

    Correct Answer
    A. Smiling while talking
    Explanation
    Smiling while talking is not part of effective communication for a phone interview because the interviewer cannot see the candidate's facial expressions. In a phone interview, communication relies solely on verbal cues such as tone of voice, vocabulary, and leading the conversation. Smiling, which is a non-verbal cue, does not contribute to effective communication in this context.

    A. Limp handshake
    Explanation
    A limp handshake is not part of tangible ethical action because it does not directly relate to ethical behavior or principles.

This could refer to the potential physical or emotional reactions that the client may experience following the session. By informing the client about the possible after-effects, they can be prepared and have a better understanding of what to expect. This can also help the client feel supported and reassured, as they know that any reactions they may have are normal and part of the process.
