Options:

Acceptance of the client's feelings

Confidentiality

Disclosure of information to public

Correct Answer:

Disclosure of information to public

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (3) → Disclosure of information to public

Counselling involves creating a safe and trusting environment for the client. Key components include:

Acceptance of the client's feelings: The counsellor accepts the client without judgment.
Confidentiality: All shared information is kept private, unless there is a risk of harm.
Listening: Active and empathetic listening is a core skill in counselling.

Disclosure of information to the public violates ethical principles and is not part of counselling practice.
