If the patient does have a case of depression due to issues that may have happened throughout his or her life, if any of the question were answered by saying not good. I would ask the patient to go in to more detail about why the relationship with her father is not good. I would also learn if there was something that would help e learn about the patient to help with their depression. The patient should be responding in a way that should tell me what had caused the problems and why there is a possibility that the patient may not be able to let the situation go. I think that these questions can help me learn a lot about their background and see how they were raised which will tell me a lot about them. Also these kinds of questions may make it easier for them to want to open up to me.
