Reference no: EM133623566

Take on the role as a Health Coach. One of your clients has been trying to quit smoking, but has not been successful. The longest stretch they have made has been three months. They understand the impact smoking has on their health, but when they are in social settings (such as with friends) they cannot stay on track and end up relapsing. They have tried to set goals for themselves, but have not been successful. In fact, they don't truly understand the importance of goal setting.

Explain to your client the importance of setting goals when making a behavior change and S.M.A.R.T. goal setting.
How would you help this client through using the Transtheoretical Model? Elaborate on examples of strategies they could implement based on processes of change.
