Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Resistance is commonly understood as clients' attempts to avoid or defend against certain topics, feelings, or concerns that they find uncomfortable or threatening. It is not usually seen as a deliberate attempt to get the therapist to work harder or gain control over the situation. While clients may have different preferences or desires for the length or focus of therapy, these are typically discussed openly and collaboratively without being labeled as "resistance."
