Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Reflection would be the most appropriate action to help the student work through this difficult situation. It would allow the student to process her thoughts and feelings about the situation, identify areas where she needs further guidance, and determine ways to improve her response in similar situations in the future. Meditation, guided imagery, and music therapy are relaxation techniques that may be helpful in other situations but would not be as relevant in this case.
