A 55-year-old male with chronic schizophrenia, stable on clozapine for the past 3 years, presents to his monthly appointment. He recently lost his part-time job as a stock clerk after the store closed permanently. He appears tearful and states, 'I do not know what to do. That job was the only thing that made me feel normal.' His thought process is linear and goal-directed, and he denies auditory hallucinations, paranoid ideation, or suicidal thoughts. The PMHNP determines that supportive psychotherapy is more appropriate than insight-oriented therapy for this patient at this time. Which response BEST exemplifies a supportive psychotherapy intervention?
