After identifying them I will acknowledge my positive and negative attitudes and I will work on them accordingly which will help me to cope with the situation. For example, in a crisis situation if I know that my feeling like fear can affect negatively on the situation, I will make sure that I am coping with my feelings and I will find the best way to respond so that I can support the client to get out of the crisis situation for the sake of my safety and client’s
