Answer: C

Clinical social work primarily focuses on assessment, diagnosis and treatment.

Clinical social work is the specialised practice of social work in mental health and health settings. Its central activities are the assessment, diagnosis, treatment and prevention of mental, emotional and behavioural disturbances, through psychotherapy, counselling and case management, usually with individuals, couples, families and small groups.

'Holistic and generalist' or 'integrated and holistic' describe the broad generalist approach to practice, which is the opposite of a specialised clinical focus. Counselling is one of its tools, but limiting it to 'only counselling' leaves out assessment and diagnosis.
