Since graduating from college, Nick has felt that his parents never really understood how successful he was or how his career path contributed to his happiness. As a result, Nick hasn’t spoken to his parents in two years. When sitting in therapy, the therapist pushes him to wonder if this is actually real. The narrative therapist is encouraging the client to practice:
  1. Valuation
  2. Deconstruction
  3. Landscape of action
  4. Gaze
Explanation
Answer - B - By deconstructing his beliefs, Nick will be able to find examples that would support whether or not his assumptions have been true. The landscape of action refers more accurately to the action that Nick could take if he found that he wanted to change his beliefs or their outcomes. Nick is clearly no longer concerned about gaze, since he has been able to study independently for himself.
