For questions x through x, please reference the following case vignette:An adult therapy group for depression and anxiety is currently in its 10th of 16 sessions. During this session, the group members markedly are participating more openly. They are supporting and challenging each other, utilizing the skills and strategies they were encouraged to utilize. The group worker is closely observing and chiming in with helpful prompts and affirmations.Sarah, who usually hesitates to share and has been dismissive about some of the therapeutic skills presented in the group, opened up about her recent struggles with self-esteem. She expressed, "I actually have been feeling better since we started, but sometimes I still hear that voice telling me I'm not good enough."John, a group member known for his insightful comments, responded, "Sarah, I can relate to that. I've been working on challenging those negative thoughts with positive affirmations, and it's slowly helping." (In previous sessions, Sarah was very dismissive to John's comments, mostly because she "doesn't trust white men" from previous negative experiences in her life; however, since then, they have grown to appreciate each other.)Maria, another member, nodded in agreement and added, "It's been helpful for me to write down my thoughts and see if they are realistic. Maybe you could try that too?"The therapist observed that the group was facilitating its own discussions and offering constructive feedback. Sarah, who had initially been skeptical about group therapy and these kind of tools, remarked, "I used to think those strategies were bogus, but seeing how they are helping you all, I'm willing to give it a shot."  What stage of development do you believe the group is in? A. Power and Control B. Differentiation C. Termination D. Intimacy
