If clients hope that the counselor is the ultimate solution to their
problems, this reveals what they believe about “need.”
An addict who denies he/she has a problem indicates an accurate

According to McMinn, a client who recognizes a need for
relationship in the healing process would not be willing to be
confronted.
Honesty with friends and the counselor has little to do with an
accurate self- awareness in McMinn’s map.
