P e r i o d i c A n a l y s i s o f G o a l s Clients should have the opportunity to give their perspective on where they have been, where they intend to go, and how long they think it will take them to get there. Clinicians ideas about the pace of therapy may differ from their clients Collaboration is key Goals should be revised and adapted to fit the current context

22. T e r m i n a t i o n Must be carefully planned and completed Inform the client when they have begun this phase of treatment Empower the client to continue on the growth journey Frame clients progress as their own success (not the clinician s- or the client-clinician dyad) Include the family as supports to maintain the change The clinician is the match that started the flame, but the family system is the oxygen that sustains it.
