What Helped in the Last Transition?

Inspect a fictional move, job change, or schedule change for reusable supports.

UNDERSTAND

What is happening here?

Previous transitions may contain useful details even when they were difficult overall. Looking for a less-hard moment can identify preparation, relationships, or environmental conditions worth repeating. It does not prove that the new transition will unfold in the same way.

For thoughtful facilitation

Open with the concept, demonstrate one fictional example, allow individual exploration or paired discussion, and close with one optional takeaway. Ask what fits the participant’s culture, language, access needs, and present capacity. Invite observation instead of disclosure; do not interpret participation as a measure of motivation.

Fit and care: Use manageable or fictional examples and adapt within competence. This is educational practice, not diagnosis, crisis care, or individualized treatment.
