Answer to Question 1

Ans: D
Phone and video conferencing is becoming increasingly popular, especially in remote areas where the land or the isolation of the clinic constitute barriers to the development of a therapeutic relationship. However, three important criteria must be conceded before the use of this technology:
- Nonverbal communication is more difficult to detect and access.
- The client must have reliable access to the technology.
- An appropriate method of documentation must still be used.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A, B, C
Eight identified features of motivational interviewing (MI) that should appear in every application of this technique include: openness to collaboration with clients' own expertise; proficiency in client-centered counseling, including accurate empathy; recognition of key aspects of client speech that guides the practice of MI; eliciting and strengthening client change talk; rolling with resistance; negotiating change plans; consolidating client commitment; and switching flexibly between MI and other intervention styles.
