What does 'confrontation' in a therapeutic context involve?

  1. Calling attention to something

  2. Avoiding the topic

  3. Aggressive behavior

  4. Ignoring the problem

The correct answer is: Calling attention to something

Confrontation in a therapeutic context involves directly addressing and acknowledging a problem or issue. This may involve bringing up a difficult topic, speaking honestly about feelings or concerns, and actively working to find resolution or understanding. Choosing to avoid the topic (Option B), display aggressive behavior (Option C), or ignore the problem (Option D) may hinder progress in therapy and prevent individuals from addressing and overcoming their challenges. Therefore, option A is the most appropriate response in the context of therapy.
