Problem
1) Imagine you are working with a client in a private practice setting. Give a brief paragraph about the fictional client.
2) Detail these three skills ( open ended question, encouraging, reflecting of feelings) you would use in working with this client and what helps to make them effective, including how they may be experienced by the client. Include any pertinent considerations for utilizing these skills with diverse clients with multicultural sensitivity in this setting.
3) Consult the literature for research on the effectiveness of counseling skills (generally or in your setting), and summarize at least two studies.
