Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
The three stages of DBT after the pretreatment phase are 1) reducing crisis behaviors and increasing coping skills, 2) reducing trauma-related symptoms, and 3) increasing life-enriching behaviors. Option B accurately reflects these phases. Option A includes assessing client resources, which is not one of the three stages after the pretreatment phase. Option C includes increasing psychological independence, which is not one of the three stages after the pretreatment phase. Option D includes referring for medical evaluation, which is not necessarily a standard part of DBT after the pretreatment phase.
