Question 1 of 5
A client with a history of depression will be participating in cognitive therapy for health maintenance. The client asks the nurse, 'How does this treatment work?' Which statement is most appropriate for the nurse to make to the client?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Cognitive therapy is frequently used with clients who have depression. This type of therapy is based on exploring the client's personal experience. It includes examining the client's thoughts and feelings about situations and how these thoughts and feelings contribute to and perpetuate the client's difficulties and mood. The development of new coping skills, gradually confronting fears, and reviewing one's past life in relation to your current problems are not characteristics of cognitive therapy.
