therapy goals
Healing aims set
Therapy goals are the specific outcomes a patient and therapist agree to work toward during treatment.
These might include managing anxiety, improving relationships, or developing coping strategies.
Goals give therapy direction and provide benchmarks for measuring progress: We revisited my therapy goals after six months to see how far I'd come.
