About Choice Point Quest

Liability, Responsibility, & Guarantee

This game is an educational tool, not therapy or medical advice. It is created by Joyson Joy P, Clinical Psychologist, but using it does not create a therapist-patient relationship.

Liability & Responsibility: You (the user) are 100% responsible for your actions and decisions. The creator and publisher are not liable for any outcomes from using this tool. Use this at your own risk.

No Guarantee: This tool does not guarantee any specific life outcome, relationship improvement, or mental health benefit. It is a simplified practice tool only.

Theory: What is the Choice Point?

The “Choice Point” is a core concept from Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), popularized by Dr. Russ Harris. It’s a map that helps you see a difficult situation clearly.

In any moment, you are at a Choice Point. You can get “hooked” by difficult thoughts and feelings, which pull you into “Away Moves” (actions that make life worse). Or, you can unhook, connect with your “Values,” and make “Towards Moves” (actions that make life richer and more meaningful).

Who Is This For?

This tool is for anyone who feels “stuck” in a pattern or wants to:

  • Understand their reactions to stress.
  • Clarify what truly matters to them (their Values).
  • Make more conscious, value-driven decisions.
  • Stop letting difficult emotions control their actions.

Science & References

This tool is based on the ACT model, an evidence-based psychotherapy.
