Answer to Question 1

Ans: A
Split-treatment psychotherapy involves a protocol between a nursetherapist who provides psychotherapy and a psychiatrist or nurse practitioner who provides pharmacotherapy for the client. The other noted modes of psychotherapy do not explicitly include pharmacologic interventions.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: C
Behavior therapy focuses on modifying overt symptoms without regard to the client's private experience or inner conflicts. Consequently, hypnotherapy would not normally be used, and past life events would not be the focus.
