Dwight is a well-trained Adlerian therapist. Richard has begun treatment with Dwight to relieve his feelings of anxiety that he experiences when giving presentations at work

During last week's session Dwight instructed Richard to visualize being at the ocean, a scene that brings pleasant feelings to Richard. Dwight then instructed Richard to visualize giving a presentation and focus on his feelings of anxiety. When Dwight reported to Richard that he felt substantially anxious, Richard instructed Dwight to again visualize being at the ocean and focus on the calm feelings that he experienced.

The purpose of the intervention that Richard used was to:
a. allow Dwight to gain awareness of his unconscious aggression toward is co-workers.
b. allow Dwight to consider the ridiculous nature of his reaction to giving presentations.
c. teach Dwight that he has control over the feelings that he experiences.
d. experience life from another person's perspective
