When It Is Used
Use it when problem saturation makes it hard for the client to imagine or name a preferred direction.
Possibility / Future Questions for client-defined aspirations
Possibility / Future Questions is a strengths-perspective reflection tool for practitioners helping clients shift from problem saturation toward hope and preferred futures. It helps clients articulate personally meaningful aspirations or possibilities for how life could be different, while allowing current constraints to be acknowledged.
Try a fictional future reflection and review the client-defined aspiration summary.

Tool guide
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.
Constraints
Constraints can be captured so the reflection surfaces hope or possibility without dismissing current realities.
Limits
The tool does not auto-generate goals, prescribe steps, score hope, or impose practitioner targets.
Is this a goal-planning tool?
No. Possibility / Future Questions captures client-defined aspirations that may later inform goals, but it does not automatically create a plan.
Can the client be tentative or unsure?
Yes. Tentative or partial future statements can be saved and expanded later.
What configuration is saved?
Completion mode and the constraint-capture setting are saved with the tool. Fictional demo aspirations are not saved as real client data.
