When Carly presents for therapy, she identifies that she would like to get her children returned from social services and so is attending treatment. She refuses to acknowledge why, or for how long, but sees this as the way to her children. You will need to explore with her:
  1. Your ability to assist her in that process
  2. Her willingness to have some insight into the issue
  3. How much difference she sees as possible
  4. Ways in which to keep her children safe
Explanation
Answer - B - While therapy can be useful for many things, unless a client is personally engaged in the process, it will mean less to them. And while you appreciate her motives, she will need to engage a bit more in order to fully benefit from treatment. Even with mandated clients, it benefits them to review how they can benefit from treatment.
