Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Being friendly, nonjudgmental and receptive creates a comfortable and welcoming environment for the client, which can facilitate communication and trust between the worker and the client. This can ultimately lead to a more positive outcome for the client. A and B can be seen as imposing the worker's views on the client, which can be counterproductive. C is avoiding confrontation rather than establishing a warm atmosphere.
