Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Prompting is the act of encouraging a client to continue with their story or to provide more information. This can be done through open-ended questions or statements that show interest and encourage the client to keep talking. Refocusing and initiating new topics are different techniques that may be used at different points in the session, but they do not specifically encourage the client to continue with their story as prompting does.
