Ans: C
Feedback:
During DBT, the therapist enhancing the client's capabilities by helping the client to regulate emotions and pay attention to the present. Mindfulness helps the client accept and attend to what is currently happening. Rather than running away from or ignoring a feeling, the therapist encourages the client to embrace it while attending to one thing at a time, thereby focusing on effective behavior. The other listed interventions are not consistent with DBT.
