A. The therapist's level of empathy
B. The amount of self- disclosing done by the therapist
C. A presence of counter- transference
D. The cohesion level within the group


D. The cohesion level within the group.

The level of cohesion is an important indicator of over-all group progress.
The other answers relate directly to the therapist (not the group) and the one dealing with counter- transference is clary not the best answer.
