Competency-based counseling assumes a. the need for insight from an expert. When joining , the counselor should ask about a. success. Goals should be a. small. When a competency-based counselor wants the client to envision their future without their problem, the counselor should ask a. the miracle question. When a client's situation is so overwhelming that the client does not notice any positive change, and any attempt to get them to see exceptions to their problem could be potentially harmful, the counselor should switch to using a. the miracle question.
All exceptions are relevant and meaningful.
Exceptions are a future event. The counselor determines the relevancy of an exception. Exceptions are already happening. When helping clients to keep change going , a competency-based counselor would encourage a. noticing any improvement in their situation. When a client presents more than one problem, the counselor should a. address the most difficult problem first.
