Last, may I comment on humor in counseling and on a caricature I saw a
while ago. A small boy cries out in the doctors' office, saying "I
don't want this hand cast anymore!", so the doctor/nurse tells him
"There, there, this is not that bad. Think of it as a new type of
piercing". :-)
I think that answered your question. However, if you need
clarifications, don't hesitate to ask before you'll rate this answer.
I also add my search terms, which may be very helpful in locating
further information. I searched scirus (http://www.scirus/com) for
counseling and compliance, with or without 'nursing' and some of the
other terms suggested by the search engine on its right-handed side.
