6. Goals—The Beginning
Goals (What & Why)
I want to…so that I can …
Goals are the overarching reason a person begins to do
something.
Often goals are broad and abstract. “I want to be
healthier.” “I want to be happy.”
Goals need to be broken down into manageable,
meaningful, observable objectives.
Phrase goals as adding a positive instead of removing a
negative.

7. Start With Problem Definition
What are the symptoms of the problem?
How are the symptoms impacting your overall
functioning?
What is your perception of the problem?
What are your strengths in relation to solving this
problem?
AllCEUs.com Unlimited CEUs $59 | Specialty Certificates $89 | Live Webinars $5
8. Goal Development
In general, if the problem is resolved what will you
achieve/what will be different?
What is the absence of the problem?
If I am not ____ then I am ______
How will your best friend know when you have
achieved your goal?
AllCEUs.com Unlimited CEUs $59 | Specialty Certificates $89 | Live Webinars $5
9. Miracle Question
One way to elicit goals is through the miracle
question:
If you woke up tomorrow and you were _____ (i.e. your
problem was resolved/goal was achieved) what would be
different?
This provides insight into the symptoms/definition of
the problem and motivations for change.
AllCEUs.com Unlimited CEUs $59 | Specialty Certificates $89 | Live Webinars $5
10. Specific
Overall Goal for Treatment
What is the problem?
Example: Depression
How will you know when the problem is resolved?
Emotionally, I won’t feel as hopeless and helpless. I wont
dread getting out of bed.
Mentally, I won’t be so foggy headed and will be able to
concentrate
Physically, I will have more energy and lose some weight
Socially, I will enjoy spending time with friends
AllCEUs.com Unlimited CEUs $59 | Specialty Certificates $89 | Live Webinars $5
11. Specific
Main Issue
Learn about the overall problem (Depression)
Learn about your symptoms/causes/triggers of the
problem
Identify ways to address your specific
symptoms/causes/triggers
Pick one way to address your specific symptoms
(helplessness, difficulty concentrating, no energy, no
desire to interact with others) and start doing that.
AllCEUs.com Unlimited CEUs $59 | Specialty Certificates $89 | Live Webinars $5
12. Measurable (Goals)
Frequency (#/time)
Number of times per day or week
i.e. Number of crying episodes/day
i.e. Number of eating episodes NOT due to hunger/day
i.e. Number of wake-ups/night
Duration (How long)
Crying
Eating
Sleeping (How long were you awake)
Intensity
How bad was it? Likert (1-mild; 2-moderate; 3-intense; 4-
excruciating)
Number of calories per binge
AllCEUs.com Unlimited CEUs $59 | Specialty Certificates $89 | Live Webinars $5
13. Recommendations
When trying to change, aim to increase a positive
behavior
Instead of crying laugh
Instead of stress eating crochet
Instead of measuring how sad you feel, measure how
happy you feel
Positive behaviors serve roughly the same
function and are incompatible with the behavior
you are trying to eliminate.
Keep it simple! Only choose one or two things to
measure.
AllCEUs.com Unlimited CEUs $59 | Specialty Certificates $89 | Live Webinars $5
14. Activity: Observable and Measurable
Write each of the following “goals” on a piece of paper:
Lose weight
Get in shape
Feel better about myself
Be happier
Identify at least 2 ways for each goal that identifies goal
achievement. “How will you know when you are/have
_____”
How would you measure each of those?
AllCEUs.com Unlimited CEUs $59 | Specialty Certificates $89 | Live Webinars $5
15. Achievable, Realistic, Time-Limited
Rome was not built in a day
Built on prior strengths and individualized
Something you are motivated and able to change
Weekly goals; Daily goals; Hourly goals (Starting)
Think of behavior change like learning lines for a play.
You wouldn’t expect to read the script once and know it. You
must rehearse
You will need prompts and assistance.
As you learn the amount of prompts will be fewer.

Main Issue (8/1/2016-9/5/2016)
I will learn about the overall problem of depression by reading
one chapter of XYZ Book and the handouts provided by Dr.
Snipes each week for 5 weeks.
I will learn about my symptoms/causes/triggers of the problem
by taking notes on what sounds like me as I read the book and
handouts about depression. I will review my notes each week.
For each symptom I have, I will create an action plan to learn
about its causes and interventions and develop a plan of
action.
Each morning and evening, I will do a mindfulness scan and
rate, on a scale from 1-4, my happiness and explain my
response. I will review this log each Friday to identify patterns
and trends.

in certain behaviors
Setting goals that are too big
Setting goals that are too hard
Setting too many goals

22. Activity
Write out instructions for how to do laundry. Give
it to someone who doesn’t know how to do it.
How complete were your instructions?
Did you remember to sort the clothes, look at tags for
care instructions? Explain how to choose which
temperature, how much detergent to use, how to handle
stains and heavily soiled laundry?
Now write out instructions for something you
don’t know about.
Rebuild a car
Learn to swim

23. Activity Scoring
Did you identify subgoals?
Were subgoals observable, measurable and
realistic
Did you identify reasons someone would be
motivated to put forth the effort to
achieve this goal?
Did you make sure you knew what you
needed to do and the sequence before
launching into it?

24. Summary
Behaviors and feelings can be measured.
Number of times per day
Duration
On a scale from 1-5
Making goals small and achievable helps keep you
from getting discouraged and gives you frequent
rewards.
It is vital to know the who, what, when, where and
whys of a behavior change and to put reminders
around, because behavior change doesn’t just
happen.
AllCEUs.com Unlimited CEUs $59 | Specialty Certificates $89 | Live Webinars $5
25. Summary
Effective goals are Specific, Measurable,
Achievable and Time Limited
Anyone should be able to look at your goal and
say whether or not you achieved it.
Small goals that you can achieve in a week
increase confidence and maintain motivation.
Instead of never eating sugar again, try cutting out
added table sugar for a week. The next week cut your
consumption of “sweets” in half. The next week, cut
your sweets in half again… and so on…
AllCEUs.com Unlimited CEUs $59 | Specialty Certificates $89 | Live Webinars $5
26. Summary
You can measure intensity or quality with an
anchored Likert scale
Make sure the behaviors you are trying to change
actually will help you achieve the goal you are
setting
Goals should follow the KSA progression
Subgoals need to be small and reinforcement
should be frequent
If motivation wanes revisit the decisional balance
exercise
