Therapeutic communication is the foundation of a patient-centered interview. Which of the following techniques is not considered therapeutic?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: As a tutor, the correct answer is D. Asking 'why' questions is not considered a therapeutic communication technique as it can come off as confrontational or judgmental, potentially making the patient feel defensive or pressured to justify their feelings. Therapeutic communication aims to create a safe and supportive environment for patients to express themselves openly without feeling judged. Restating, encouraging description of perceptions, and summarizing are all therapeutic techniques that help patients feel heard and understood, fostering trust and empathy in the patient-provider relationship.
