Quick Locus of Control Tool
I’ve been using a simple locus-of-control exercise with people who feel over-responsible or stuck in anxiety loops.
Clients sort stressors into:
--Control (inner world, boundaries, coping)
--Influence (relationships, outcomes)
--No control (others, past, uncertainty)
The key question: “Which circle is your anxiety living in right now?”
It often opens deeper conversations around survival strategies, grief, and self-compassion.
👇 I’d love to hear from different perspectives:
--Clinicians: How do you deepen this beyond psychoeducation?
--Coaches: How do you help clients move from awareness to action?
--Others: What helps you release what isn’t yours to carry?
Looking forward to learning from this community.
