Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Self-disclosure by a therapist or helper should be used to benefit the client, such as building rapport, strengthening the therapeutic alliance, or aiding in client normalization and empowerment. It is not appropriate for processing the helper's own emotions and biases, as the focus should remain on the client's needs and therapeutic goals.
