Question 1 of 5
A nurse in a community mental health clinic is caring for a group of clients. The nurse should encourage participation in cognitive behavioral family therapy in response to which of the following client statements?

Choice B is incorrect as it pertains more to individual therapy exploring past experiences.
Choice C is incorrect as it focuses on improving understanding of boundaries, which is not the primary goal of cognitive behavioral family therapy.
