• Characteristics of Supportive Counselling:
• Core Objective: Supportive counseling focuses on emotional stabilization, restoring equilibrium, bolstering coping mechanisms, and boosting self-esteem within a safe, validating therapeutic environment.
• Present vs. Past Focus:
• Supportive therapy is strictly present-oriented and focused on immediate adaptive adjustment.
• Focusing on the past to uncover deep unconscious conflicts and root causes is the defining hallmark of psychodynamic psychotherapy and psychoanalysis (Freudian therapy), NOT supportive counseling.
• Key Supportive Techniques: Active listening, reality testing, validation of feelings, role-modeling adaptive behaviors, and collaborative problem-solving.
• Conclusion: Focusing on the past to identify the root cause of problems is NOT typically associated with supportive counseling (Option 3).

Correct option: (3) Focusing on the past to identify the root cause of problems

• Fundamental Ethical Principles of Counseling Services:
• Confidentiality: Safeguarding all client disclosures within legal and ethical boundaries, establishing essential therapeutic trust.
• Respect for client autonomy: Honoring the client's agency, independence, self-determination, and personal decision-making power.
• Beneficence: Proactively promoting the client's well-being, psychological health, and constructive development.
• Presumption of client incompetence: Completely antithetical to ethical counseling. Humanistic and professional counseling philosophies presume that clients possess intrinsic dignity, capacity for self-direction, and innate potential for growth.
• Conclusion: (A), (B) and (C) only (Option 1).

Correct option: (1) (A), (B) and (C) only.

• Non-Directive (Person-Centered) Counselling (Carl Rogers):
• Core Tenets:
• Promotes client autonomy and empowerment: The client is the ultimate expert on their own life; the counselor facilitates self-discovery.
• Focuses on client emotions rather than hurried results: Prioritizes empathic reflection of emotional experiences, congruence, and unconditional positive regard over quick fixes.
• Values client perspective: Fully centers the client's internal frame of reference.
• Directive vs Non-Directive:
• Statement (B) (imposing counselor solutions) is strictly forbidden in non-directive counseling; directive approaches give explicit advice, whereas person-centered therapy completely rejects counselor imposition.
• Conclusion: (A), (C) and (D) only (Option 2).

Correct option: (2) (A), (C) and (D) only.
