Interactive Journaling®
For over 22 years The Change Companies has been creating Interactive Journals. They are designed with the collaboration of industry leaders in behavioral change and are tangible, engaging, and change-focused journals that guide an individual through life-change. This innovative approach is widely praised and helps to enhance the therapeutic engagement between providers of service and their participants.
In the course of gathering immediate and relevant information related to the problem areas, participants map out where they have been, where they are now, where they wish to go and how to get there. This structured and experiential writing process leads participants through a series of core behavior change content, targeted questioning and effective behavioral change strategies toward positive, pro-social life changes.
To date, we have served over 20 million individuals in their exploration and engagement in life changes.
Customization
For over two decades, The Change Companies® has partnered with medical and treatment teams, alcohol and other drug educators, criminal justice organizations, state agencies and healthcare companies to create tailored materials and programs to support behavioral change for special populations. Each collaboration has led to new products and new conceptualizations of our core content. The customized materials we create deliver our evidence-based models through a unique medium that most effectively speaks to each participant.
If your needs call for a special Journal designed specifically for your program and clients, give us a call. Describe your ideas and The Change Companies® will develop a plan and a budget that will fit your precise circumstances. Our staff goes right to your site and works with your professional team. Together we create the "right tool" for your program and clients. And your logo, name, colors and message can be shared with your target audiences to enhance the journaling experience.
Training
Our strength rests with bringing the best in research to specific audiences in a manner that is most appropriate to achieve the goals of the organization. The "one box fits all" approach doesn't work when the goal is to bring real change to an organization and to the individuals it serves. The Change Companies® takes the time to listen and collaborate with its clients so that the services rendered are tailored to meet agreed upon goals.
Part of what we offer is the ability for your organization to come to us in Carson City, Nevada for specialized group training. Here, you can see first hand how Interactive Journals are made and meet the people behind them. You too can experience a BOP session!
