Create Breakthrough Moments in Your Very Next Session
Even with your most reluctant clients. Even when they say "I don't know." Even through a screen.
Imagine this:Â
A teenage client who usually gives one-word answers suddenly opens up about what matters to them.
An adult client stuck in rumination connects with their values and identifies concrete action.
A therapy session that was going nowhere suddenly comes alive with meaning and possibility.
This isn't wishful thinking. It's what happens when you use the DNA-V Values & Vitality Card Sorter.

How It Works: The 4-Step Process
1. The Initial Sort
Clients encounter a collection of value cards and sort them into three columns based on what matters right now. This isn't about future aspirations or past priorities—it's about present-moment values. The sorting process itself reveals insights: where they hesitate, what they protect, what they quickly dismiss.
2. Narrow to Five
Focus on the "Very Important" pile and narrow down to just five cards. This is where the real work happens. Clients often struggle here—"But they're all important!" That difficulty is valuable information. The process builds awareness and helps distinguish between what's truly vital versus what they think should be important.
3. Deep Reflection
Guide clients through powerful reflection questions: What do you notice? Were there surprises? What's missing? How did it feel emotionally? This activates the Noticer and Discoverer—key DNA-V skills that create lasting change beyond intellectual insight.
4. From Values to Action
Choose one value from the top five to focus on this week. Identify one specific action that moves toward that value. Make it concrete and doable. This is where values become vitality—where insight transforms into meaningful change in daily life.

What Makes This Different?
Evidence-Based
Grounded in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and the innovative DNA-V model. Not just another values exercise—this is backed by decades of research and clinical application by world-renowned experts.
Â
Activates All DNA-V Skills
Discoverer:Â Opens new possibilities
Noticer:Â Builds awareness of internal experiences
Advisor:Â Reveals "should" thinking
Vitality:Â Connects values to action
Â
Bypasses Resistance
The visual, interactive nature of sorting creates engagement even with clients who shut down in traditional talk therapy. It gives hands (and minds) something to do while meaningful conversations unfold.
Â
Process Reveals Insight
The final five values are valuable, but watching how clients sort reveals just as much. Their hesitations, their certainties, their emotional reactions—all provide rich therapeutic material.
