Learn more about this tool
Use this background section to understand when the tool fits, how practitioners use it, and what to consider before sharing it with clients.
Empty Slots
Empty day-part slots are acceptable. The goal is meaningful and realistic planning, not filling every slot.
Barriers
Anticipated obstacles are captured before the client attempts activities, then outcomes can be reviewed afterward.
Is this the same as a weekly calendar?
No. It is a behavioral activation diary that includes planned activities, implementation details, anticipated obstacles, and later outcome observations.
Does every morning, afternoon, and evening slot need an activity?
No. Empty slots are allowed and should not be treated as errors.
Does the tool rate mood improvement?
No. It does not add unsupported mood-effect scores or activity ratings.
What is saved from the demo?
The diary tool and setup are saved. Fictional activities, barriers, and outcome observations are not saved as real client data.
