Vague term used in American clinical psychology used to describe a type of response elicited by the therapist that takes the form of either a question or statement which by its sympathetic nature encourages the patient to elaborate further, thereby providing the therapist with sufficient data to administer an appropriate therapy ("processing" of the client). The term "process" may also refer to the nature of the therapist's question, which on the surface appears as if he or she is summarizing the process that has caused the patient to be traumatized. 2, record 1, English, - process%20response
