During assessment, the therapist asks a couple about their goals for treatment. The husband says that he would like them to communicate better. The wife rolls her eyes and repeats his words in an angry mocking manner. She says that she has begged him to go to therapy with her for years, but now he has waited too long, and she will leave him as soon as the children leave home. In assessing the wife's motivation for therapy, the therapist should first:

a) Explore her communication style
b) Address the husband's concerns
c) Assess her commitment to the relationship
d) Explore the husband's communication style
