Answer:
The correct answer is c) If a miracle happened, and your shopping compulsion was solved overnight, how would you know it was solved, and what would be different?
Explanation:
Steve de Shazer and Insooo Kin Berg are the precursors of solution-oriented therapy; this therapy was born from the need to offer a brief intervention to patients.
Solution-oriented therapy is characterized by its focus on the present and future, with the objective of solving problems. In the therapeutic process, sessions are held where a conversation takes place with the objective that the patient learns to know the means he has to give solutions to his problems.
This therapy uses the "miracle question" as a technique where the patient is asked if a miracle occurs, how would you know it was resolved? And what would you notice differently? This "miraculous question" uses the patient's imagination with the goal of him/her being aware of possible solutions to their problem, which should be realistic and feasible.
For example, in the case of the compulsive buyer, the therapist uses the "miraculous question" where the patient thinks what the differences in his life would be if his problem were solved miracle, it is a way of leading the client to recognize how his life would be without his compulsion, this will motivate to make that change in his life step by step.
