Which of the following does Wubbolding believe does NOT encourage client involvement in therapy?

Wubbolding emphasizes the importance of client involvement in therapy as a crucial aspect of the Choice Theory/Reality Therapy approach. Allowing the client to focus on symptoms does not encourage their active participation in the therapeutic process. Instead, it may lead to a more passive experience, where the client remains centered on problems rather than engaging in understanding and changing their behaviors or choices.

In contrast, appropriate use of humor, attending behavior, and facilitative self-disclosure are all strategies that foster connection, openness, and engagement between the therapist and the client. These methods encourage clients to actively participate in their therapy, promoting a sense of agency and empowerment in their treatment journey. Therefore, the focus on symptoms stands in opposition to the goal of increasing client involvement and responsibility in their therapeutic experience.
