Answer to Question 1

Ans: C
Adjunctive therapies such as art therapy allow clients to express feelings or conflicts that they are unable to express verbally. The primary goal is not producing valuable objects or distracting clients.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A
Persons receiving implosive therapy, or flooding, are exposed to intense forms of anxiety producers, either in imagination or in real life. Assertiveness training focuses on honesty when interacting with others. Confrontation and teaching about the negative consequences of behavior are components of behavior modification therapy.
