Marital and Family Therapy

Category - Practice

As practitioners, we are required to inform clients about potential risks associated with therapy. Philosophically, the risks involved:
  1. Are about equal to the benefits
  2. Outnumber the benefits
  3. Could prove damaging for those who are not prepared
  4. Make for heightened awareness
Explanation
Answer - C - Risks of emotionally draining work for those who are not prepared for what may come up are a lot more common than risks outnumbering benefits. In order to prepare clients for some of the work that you will do, you will want to keep them informed whenever you feel them reaching into areas that have not been previously explored. While they will go when they are ready, you are remaining present by sharing what you feel and see.
