Final Answer : C, Explanation :  Cognitive therapy focuses on identifying and changing negative thought patterns and beliefs that contribute to emotional and behavioral difficulties. Therefore, it places a strong emphasis on clients' personal interpretations of life events and how they may be impacting their mental health. While it may address clients' feelings about their therapist, it does not focus special attention on these feelings. Personality tests may be used, but are not a central part of cognitive therapy. It may also associate behaviors with unpleasant experiences, but this is not its primary focus.
