My question is related to the previous one. My client seems to have difficulty with timelines: concepts such as tomorrow, last year, or last week can be meaningless. What should I do?

No problem.

Useful suggestions! Thank you so much!

Social workers must create other systems to help clients communicate about time frames. One way is to use cards with pictures of the seasons. Then it is possible to ask if something happened in summer, winter, or fall, for example. Another useful aid is a series of pictures of a person at different ages—as a baby, a young child, a teenager, an adult, and an older person. Using these cards makes it possible to ask whether an event happened when the person was little or older.
