Therapist Guidance
- Clients should be instructed to generate a list of planned activities.
- Activities are then assigned a priority ranging from “A. Urgent and very important” to “E. Something to remember but not a priority at this time”.
- Activities are then assigned a number for completion according to their priority.
- Space is given to record when activities have been completed.
