Which phrase best demonstrates an effective paraphrase of a person's emotions?

A) "For being nervous,you handled the situation well!"
B) "I understand exactly how you feel."
C) "It sounds as though you are feeling overwhelmed."
D) "That reminds me of a time when I got a bad grade on a test!"

Option C effectively paraphrases the person's emotions by reflecting back on what they said and interpreting their feelings as being overwhelmed. It shows empathy and understanding without invalidating or minimizing their feelings. Options A and D focus more on the person's behavior or personal experiences rather than their emotions, and option B assumes understanding without actually validating or acknowledging the person's specific emotions.
