Answer to Question 1

A
This remark suggests the mother places a high value on her child's gymnastics standing, which to a
great extent depends on thinness. The other options suggest thinking synchronous with therapeutic
goals.

Answer to Question 2

D
The client is at risk for a hypertensive crisis if she takes MAOIs and SSRIs without an appropriate
washout period. The duration of the washout period is determined by the half-life of the SSRI. The
other options are of lesser relevance.
