Answer: c

oriented therapy model?

b) Cognitive behavior therapy
c) Behavior therapy
d) Person-centered approach
Answer: d
Rationale: The person-centered approach, developed by Carl Rogers, is the
quintessential experiential and relationship-oriented therapy. It emphasizes the
therapeutic relationship and the client's subjective experience rather than techniques or
specific interventions. Feminist therapy, cognitive behavior therapy, and behavior
therapy are considered action-oriented or cognitive-behavioral approaches.

oriented therapy model?
a) Existential therapy
b) Psychoanalytic therapy
c) Choice theory/Reality therapy
d) Family systems therapy
Answer: c
Rationale: Choice theory/Reality therapy, developed by William Glasser, is classified as a
cognitive-behavioral action-oriented approach. It focuses on present behavior and the
client's choices rather than past experiences. Existential therapy is experiential,
psychoanalytic therapy focuses on the unconscious, and family systems therapy
addresses interpersonal dynamics.
