Jason is a 31 year old male and is the second oldest of five in his family. He has been involved on and off with mental health and addiction services for the past 12 years following his first experience of mental distress as a 19 year old.In his twenties, and when his cannabis and methamphetamine use was regular and heavy, he prospected for a gang but was never patched as they found him "a bit too crazy". He says that he now wants to get away from that lifestyle and not fall back into old patterns, keep his cannabis use under control, get a job and reconnect with his family. He says he would like to have a lot more to do with raising his sons and would like to be better able to financially support them. Being a good role model and father is a significant goal for Jason and the main reason for wanting to get his "life back together again".

Jason identifies family as one of his top five values. He tells you that participating in criminal activity carries the risk of punishment (such as imprisonment) which takes him away from his family (for example, his sons and brother). A key question might be "How does going to prison show your sons that you care?" and "How could you show your sons you care for them in other ways that really align with your chosen values?"

Keep key messages in mind to share by validating Angela's feelings and then letting her know that the work you are doing together will make a positive difference and that your service and you are committed to her wellbeing, whatever that means for her. Demonstrate confidence by letting Angela know about you and your service's experience and good outcomes in working with people with similar stories to hers.

Gloria is in her sixties and lives in a sunny unit on the city fringe. She has three grown up children who all live in other towns, so she doesn't see them as often as she would like. Since her husband died two years ago Gloria has felt a bit isolated. When he was alive she and her husband would regularly have a glass of wine with their meal in the evening.
