QUESTION 23 OF 30

How do you help your couples set goals?

Give the interviewer a step-by-step approach to how you would help your client. Give an example to make it more concrete. You could start by talking about one or two issues your hypothetical client might be dealing with. Paint a picture using examples and talk about results. Tell the interviewer how you were you effective in helping your client set and attain their goals.

"Through individual and couple therapy I encourage my couples to make individual goals as well as goals as a couple. I focus on the importance of being their own person as well as a healthy couple."
