Language plays an important part in Gestalt therapy, like the use of _____ and _______ questions.
  1. Reactive and thoughtful
  2. Useful and nonsense
  3. What and How
  4. Questions are not used in Gestalt Therapy
Explanation
Answer - C - In this treatment approach, questions usually begin with “what” or “How” or sometimes “where,” but rarely with “why.” Questions such as “What are you experiencing when you fight with your spouse” or “How does it feel when you fight with your spouse?” are more likely to keep the client in the present moment. ‘Why’ questions typically lead to a focus on past experiences.
