If a client lives in daily fear of having another psychotic episode after not having one for over 10 years and says that it is her illness that keeps her from moving forward in life, the therapist may ask a question such as: Thats interesting. You say you havent had an episode in 10 years, so hallucinations dont seem to be plaguing you these days. But it does sound like the worry about hallucinations is the problem at this point. Do you think of this as part of the original problem, or is it a new problem that only developed after the first was resolved? What intervention is the therapist employing?

a. Sharing inner dialogue
b. Making an appropriately unusual comment
c. Mutual puzzling
d. Being public
