Hello there!

Your question asks what answer choice best fits in the blank.

Answer: a). eclectic

Answer choice "A). eclectic" is the correct answer because this is specifically what the therapist is doing.

The therapist applies "eclectic" in her work to help out many patients. The therapists gets her treatments from "many sources" in order to help different patients with their different needs.

The therapists does this in order to ensure that the patient is satisfied with their treatment. Not all treatments work with all patients, therapists should find other treatment to meet patients needs.

I hope this helps!

Best regards,

Answer:

A). eclectic

Step-by-step explanation:

"Instead I operate in a(n) eclectic fashion, integrating various treatment approaches based on the specific needs of each client."

The reason why answer choice "A). eclectic" would be the correct answer because the word "eclectic" best describes the amount of treatments that the therapist uses.

"Eclectic" means to get something from many different resources.

This means that the therapist is eclectic, due to the fact that the therapist said that she doesn't limit herself to one theory or approach. She says that she operates in an "eclectic fashion," meaning that she operates in an "open-minded" fashion, allowing herself to try new treatments and theories on patients. This allows her to have a wide variety of treatments for patients that have different needs of treatment.

I hope this helped you out.

Good luck on your academics.

Have a fantastic day!
