Feedback: In beginning interviews with prospective clients, social workers should
typically adopt an open or accessible body position, the nonverbal language of the Giraffe
(Egan, 2010; Evans, Hearn, Uhlemann, & Ivey, 2008; Ivey et al., 2012). Sometimes,
however, you may need to assume an informal body position to increase the comfort and
decrease the threat experienced by another person. With teenage clients, significant
encounters may occur while sharing a soft drink, shooting pool, or leaning against a fence
or wall.
