Draft a short reflection paper. Analyze the self-knowledge you have developed and expect to use critical thinking.

What client behaviors do you anticipate to be the most problematic for you? Why?

As a helper, how can you best deal with clients exhibiting challenging behavior (e.g., those who act in a passive-aggressive, unmotivated, or withdrawn manner)?

How vital is helper self-disclosure in the helping relationship? What guidelines would you use to determine when self-disclosure is appropriate?
