Educational Guide

Also known as a Decisional Balance Sheet, this tool moves beyond a simple pros-and-cons list. It asks clients to evaluate the gains and losses of both changing and staying exactly the same. This highlights the hidden 'cost of inaction,' which is often the key to breaking through ambivalence and resistance.
