Answer: (C) emphasizes clients' abilities to engage their own resources to act in their world with others.

Explanation: Person centered approach is a form of therapy developed by Carl Rogers in the 1940s which seeks to facilitate a client's self-actualizing tendency, an innate desire and inclination towards growth and fulfillment. The therapy is based on Rogers's belief that every human being strives for and has the capacity to fulfill their own potential.
