Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The client's fear of failure in job responsibilities is a clear indication of poor self-esteem and negative self-image. This should be prioritized as it is the root cause of the client's problematic relationships and rejection of others. It is important to address this first to help the client build a stronger sense of self-worth and decrease their fear of failure. The other options are not relevant to the client's current presentation.
