Concealing details or withholding information from your therapist typically indicates which of the following?
Explanation
When a client deliberately hides information from their therapist, it is commonly a sign of resistance to therapy. Resistance involves behaviors that hinder the therapeutic process, such as avoidance or withholding, which can impede progress. This differs from transference (projecting feelings onto the therapist), free association (spontaneous verbal expression), and displacement (shifting emotions to a safer target).
