Handling Changes

Coping Skills #3

Worksheet Description

The “Coping with Change” worksheet is designed to assist individuals in managing the impacts of significant life changes. Recognizing that change can often be outside of one’s control, this resource prompts thoughtful reflection on the nature of these changes and encourages the identification of positive coping strategies. It is an empowering tool that supports users in acknowledging their new realities and discovering personal resilience.

The worksheet is structured with two main columns: “Ways My Life is Different” and “Ways I Can Cope with This Change.” These columns are paired with empty boxes for users to fill in, allowing them to draw clear connections between specific changes in their lives and the adaptive methods they can employ to handle them. This layout is designed to facilitate a dual focus on recognizing the challenges presented by change and actively seeking constructive responses. By completing this exercise, individuals are guided to not only articulate the changes they face but also to empower themselves with actionable steps to maintain well-being and stability through periods of transition. This worksheet serves as a practical aid for anyone looking to navigate life’s uncertainties with intention and positive action.
