I’m working on a psychology discussion question and need support to help me understand better.

What are some strategies you can use to help clients envision different possibilities and instill hope? Choose a counseling theory you are considering using and explain how skills related to the theory could be used to help the client see different perspectives. How might a client’s developmental stage impact the skills used in the session and the treatment planning process? Include at least one scholarly reference in your response.

This discussion question is informed by the following CACREP Standards:

2.F.5.a. Theories and models of counseling.

2.F.5.h. Developmentally relevant counseling treatment or intervention plans.

2.F.5.n. Processes for aiding students in developing a personal model of counseling.
