"Shift your mindset for more effective results! Valuing what your clients bring to the table is a game changer. “Shift Your Mindset: Tapping Into Client Strengths,” teaches you to focus on strengths during client assessments and appointments and how to apply it for the long term. Your clients will be more comfortable working towards their organizing and productivity goals, leaving them in a better place.
I will engage the audience with personal case studies/client stories and research on the topic out of the School of Education and Social Policy at Northwestern University.
Even if our clients hire us to ""fix"" what is wrong, we do not have to approach the work from a deficit-based mindset. We can guide our clients to tap into their gifts from within. This helps us be a more successful resource for them.
Objectives:
• Identify asset-based approaches for clients living with challenges that impact organization and productivity in activities of daily living.
• Distinguish between deficit-based symptoms and those with the potential to improve outcomes for clients living with challenges that impact organization and productivity.
• Build upon strengths following evaluation and self-reflection with clients to encourage those living with different types of organizing and productivity challenges to face them with increased autonomy moving forward."
