Reality Therapy focuses on the client's ability to cope with reality by encouraging them to recognize their current situation and make choices that contribute to achieving their goals. This therapeutic approach emphasizes personal responsibility and the importance of aligning one's behaviors with their values and needs.

In Reality Therapy, the therapist works collaboratively with the client, helping them understand how their behavior affects their current circumstances and how they can take steps to create positive change. The emphasis is on the present and future, rather than dwelling on past historical events or unconscious motives. This approach is designed to empower clients to make conscious choices that enhance their lives, promote well-being, and foster effective coping strategies in the face of reality.
