Answer to Question 1

a

Answer to Question 2

The therapist reviews with the client all the situations in which the habit occurs and how the habit may have caused some inconvenience or embarrassment. This review is a motivation strategy, which increases the likelihood that the client will use the competing response outside of the treatment session to control the habit.
