Final Answer :
A
Explanation :
The technique described in the scenario is associated with the psychoanalytic approach, specifically with the method of free association. In this technique, the client is encouraged to talk about whatever comes to mind, without censoring or filtering their thoughts. The therapist listens and looks for patterns, themes, and unconscious processes that might be influencing the client's behavior and emotions. The goal is to help the client gain insight and resolve conflicts that might be rooted in their past experiences or relationships.
