When It Is Used
Use it when a client is trying to become more active but proposed activities feel arbitrary, obligation-driven, or disconnected from what matters.
Values-to-Activity Map for Behavioral Activation
Values-to-Activity Map is a behavioral activation mapping tool for practitioners helping clients choose meaningful activity targets. It helps clients name personal values, link them to feasible activities, and state why those activities are worth trying.

Use this background section to understand when the tool fits, how practitioners use it, and what to consider before sharing it with clients.
What It Captures
The map captures values in the client's own terms, activity targets, and rationale connecting the activity to recovery goals.
Limitations
The tool does not provide a standardized values inventory, value ranking, symptom score, diagnostic interpretation, or system-generated values.
Does the tool define the client's values?
No. Values are entered by the client or seeded by the practitioner from prior discussion; the system does not invent them.
Can one value have more than one activity?
Yes. The map supports one or more activity targets linked to a value.
What happens if an activity is too broad?
The review flags broad targets for refinement so they can become specific enough for scheduling or follow-up.
Can I start from values already discussed in session?
Yes. Practitioner-seeded mode lets you begin with priority value areas already discussed.
