New Year’s Resolutions and S.M.A.R.T Goals – Goal-Setting Counseling in Maumelle, AR

Why is it that so many of our goals go unrealized? Because they’re not S.M.A.R.T goals: specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, and timely. Fortunately, a counselor can help us set, keep, and achieve S.M.A.R.T. goals. If you think you could benefit from goal-setting counseling, reach out to Thriveworks Maumelle.

What Are S.M.A.R.T. Goals?

Specific: Specificity is key to setting good goals. Instead of saying, “I want to run more,” consider, “I want to be able to run one mile.”

Measurable: A measurable goal will allow you to set benchmarks for yourself so you can see your progress. To stick with the running metaphor, running “more” isn’t measurable; what does “more” mean? One mile, however, is measurable. With that measurable distance in place, you’ll be able to develop a plan that has you running farther each week.

Attainable: Make sure your goal is in reach. For example, if you’ve never run before, deciding to run a marathon in two months is likely too extreme, though it may become attainable at a later date.

Relevant: Goals are only worth setting if they’re relevant to you and how you want to grow as a person. Instead of deciding to learn to run because your friends run, you’ll be more successful if you have a genuine desire to run that mile.

Timely: Give yourself a timeline so you have an immediate urgency helping propel you forward. For example, “I want to be able to run a mile in six weeks.”

A Thriveworks Maumelle counselor can go over the S.M.A.R.T concept in more detail and help you apply it to your goals. Counseling isn’t just for those struggling with depression, trauma, or other disorders. The goal of counseling is to help you live your best life, and setting successful goals is part of creating that best life.

Ellen is a fantastic therapist. She listens well, evaluates and reframes my thoughts, and gives me practical methods to put them to rest, embrace uncertainty, and find peace.

I haven’t had any issues whatsoever. My therapist Ellen Moncrief has been amazing and I always look forward to being able to work with her during our sessions. She listens and does everything she can to help me learn new and better ways of coping and always helps me get better at using the coping skills I already have. I’m grateful for everything she and therapy have been able to do for me and continue to do for me.

★★★★★
Ellen is a very professional and kind therapist. She’s committed and present. She is honest and accountable. The best part about working with Ellen is that my whole life changed for the better. Before that I was anxious all the time. I struggled with depression, conflict management, blowing up, and just generally didn’t have an understanding of myself so I would lose control a lot. As soon as I started working with Ellen I was ready for a big change. While a lot improved over the first year, with more time I was able to be discharged and I am fully confident that I will know how to manage things that may come up in the future. She was patient and knowledgeable as she would teach and guide me through DBT, IFS, and anything else that may help. I liked that we would practice a lot together and discuss how the skills were being applied. In my experience Ellen is very skilled across the board but the part that made so much clarity and improvement possible is that she would let us pause at any time and she could just witness my life feel hard. She was a supportive presence who would be there multiple dead end weeks in a row, still there, still kind and full of care. Even when I was in a deep rut, avoiding the work, or over it all, she never pushed too hard to keep working. She just let me be where I was and without her excellent care I really do not believe I would be able to look forward to life in the same way I do now.
