Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Option A is true as clinician genuineness does play a role in building relationships. Option B is also true as focusing too much on the relationship may result in time being taken away from discussing important matters related to the client's goals. Therefore, options A and B are both valid. However, option C is not true because while the relationship is important, it should not always be the focus of conversation as there are other topics that are equally or more important to the client's progress.
