Answer to Question 1

4,5
Rationale: Professional standards of care about sex. Although professional standards of care about sex are important, they are not areas of self-assessment for working with clients who have sexual disorders.

Answer to Question 2

1
Rationale: The client can avoid relapse by using effective coping during high-risk situations. Acknowledging a connection to a higher power is a spiritual approach of Alcoholics Anonymous. Viewing the disorder as one facet of the client's identity may lead to complacency with maintaining sobriety. Relapse is common and always a threat to sobriety.
