Your personal mission statement

The client is stuck in goal-by-goal mode without a sense of what those goals are for. Useful in early treatment to anchor later behavioral activation, decisional work, or post-recovery planning. Also good with clients in transition (post-divorce, post-illness, mid-career change).

The form has 5 fields. “Five values that define you” is a repeating block with at least 5 rows, each with 1 sub-field (short-text). “Three concrete things you’ll do this month to live by it” is a repeating block with at least 3 rows, each with 1 sub-field (long-text).

A clinical note worth holding: the gap between the values they name and the life they describe living. That gap is usually the lever.

In my-cbt, this is one of the bundled system templates. You preview, customise, and assign it from the case file in two clicks. Submissions save to the file with a timestamp. The repeating sections expand on screen instead of running out of room in a margin.
