    Therapeutic communication techniques include giving information to clients, acknowledging clients, making observations, offering support, clarifying events in time or sequence, presenting reality, reflecting clients' statements back to them, and restating clients' main ideas. These techniques build trust, show recognition of clients as individuals, help clients verbalize issues, offer the nurse's presence and understanding, provide clarity and perspective, ensure clients' views are understood correctly, and encourage clients to continue communicating.
