SPECIFIC:
Solutions for couples need to cater
specifically for their needs, whilst referring to general principles applicable
to all. We are therefore here to identify and lay down viable principles that
they can follow.
MEASURABLE:
In each case an
appropriate time-frame is needed to suit their progress, this can guide the
clients to a short-term goal.
ACHIEVABLE:
Both the spouses take a
‘positive’ approach
in restoring, repairing or building foundations for a healthy relationship, and
setting goals that can be reached.
REALISTIC:
Whatever is possible
and a ‘Can do attitude’
will fulfil immediate short-term problems that can be overlooked, together with
longer term solutions.
TIPS:
Stick to key and
instant ‘advice patterns’, ‘immediate solutions’ to general problems which we disseminate.
