Choice Point

Choice Point is an ACT-derived action-pattern map for practitioners. It helps clarify a client's recurring choice moments, triggers or hooks, away moves, toward moves, and workable alternatives so intervention can focus on value-consistent behavior in difficult moments.

Repeat Use

History is useful because repeated maps can show recurring hooks, away moves, and emerging toward alternatives while preserving context differences.

Important Boundary

The tool does not score the client, rank values, predict behavior, or decide which action is clinically correct.

What is saved in a Choice Point result?

The result saves the action-pattern map: choice moments, hooks or triggers, away moves, toward moves, workable alternatives, authorship, and practitioner notes where entered.

Can the map be incomplete?

Yes. Partial maps are allowed and can show missing alternatives or unresolved areas.

Does the tool decide what counts as a toward move?

No. Client examples are reported, structure is descriptive, and clinical meaning remains practitioner interpreted.
