Use all the steps)

A. Examine personal thoughts and feelings about meeting the client: The nurse should first engage in self-reflection to identify any biases, anxieties, or expectations. This helps ensure that personal feelings do not interfere with establishing a therapeutic and professional relationship with the client. B. Introduce self and set goals for the relationship: After self-reflection, the nurse introduces themselves to the client and collaboratively establishes the goals and boundaries of the therapeutic relationship. This step builds trust and sets clear expectations for interactions. C. Assist the client with identifying problem-solving techniques: Once the relationship is established, the nurse helps the client develop coping and problem-solving strategies. This step supports the client’s growth, autonomy, and ability to manage challenges effectively. D. Summarize the achievement of goals that have been met: At the conclusion of the therapeutic relationship, the nurse reviews progress with the client and summarizes goals that were achieved. This reinforces accomplishments, encourages continued growth, and provides closure to the relationship.
