Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Therapy is often seen as a way for individuals to transition from one stage of life to another by resolving past issues and gaining new insights and skills. It can be viewed as a rite of passage, similar to other traditional rituals that mark important life transitions such as adolescence to adulthood or marriage. Clients may also experience personal growth and increased self-awareness, leading to a sense of individuation or separation from old patterns or identities. The other choices are not accurate representations of therapy as a rite of passage.
