There's something magical that happens as people move cards around and make decisions about what they value. I use many card sorts with clients, and now I'm adding the Work-Life Balance cards to my mix.
Jim Peacock, Principal, Peak Careers Consulting
The Work-Life Balance Card Sort is an incredible tool for helping my clients to clarify their needs and values while quickly pinpointing specific areas that we can work on in therapy together to bring more balance, meaning, and mental wellness into their lives.
Christy Cole, Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor
I just wanted to take a moment to express how pleased I am with your product. The whole set, including the header cards, the priorities, and the question guide are so well-thought-out. I think that especially in the beginning stages of therapy when clients know they want "something" to be different, but aren't sure what, this will help to articulate goals. I'm excited to use the cards with my clients!
Kate, Licensed Clinical Social Worker
I knew when I ventured back into the workforce after having been a stay-at-home parent for 5 years that I wanted to explore a new career path. The Work-Life Balance Assessment was the perfect tool to help me find my career direction while reminding me that family and time for myself is also important.
Lisa, counseling client
After 20 years dedicated to my work community, my boundaries between work and life felt helplessly blurred. I used the Work-Life Balance Assessment to reflect on and clarify my priorities and it helped me realize I needed a change. I am grateful for this tool, which enabled me to rearticulate my goals and values, as well as envision a new career path that made me feel excited and optimistic.
Kristin, counseling client
The card sort helped me figure out where I was feeling stuck in my life. It helped me see that my professional self was thriving and that there was room for growth in my personal sphere. That helped me realize that I had a couple core needs that I could start meeting right away. The clarity this provided changed my perspective and empowered me. I am grateful for this amazing tool!
