Alexis begins telling you about how her mother was never satisfied with the progress she had made in school, much like her mother had never been satisfied with her own progress. While Alexis continues on in detail about the family saga, it is clear that she lacks some insight into the transmission of certain feelings. One way to help Alexis begin to understand might be:
  1. Draw a genogram
  2. Convince Alexis to talk with her aunt for an unbiased perspective
  3. Encourage Alexis to come back to the present moment
  4. Align with Alexis in order to move on
Explanation
Answer - A - You can help Alexis understand by drawing a genogram. The client is engaged in the present moment; these feelings are real and inviting other family members in at this moment may not change that.
