Final Answer :
C
Explanation :
Counselors prefer a large effect size as it indicates that the intervention or treatment had a significant and meaningful impact on the client's well-being. A small effect size may not be clinically significant, and a medium effect size may be satisfactory but not optimal. The true effect size is not a term commonly used in counseling research.
