Final Answer : C, Explanation :  The correct approach in anxiety hierarchy (used in systematic desensitization) is to gradually move up the hierarchy, starting from less anxiety-provoking situations to more anxiety-provoking ones. Once a client is comfortable with one level, they move to the next higher (more anxiety-provoking) item.
