<p><em>&ldquo;To appreciate</em> <em>the patient&rsquo;s motivation</em>, we need to &hellip; discern the <em>emotional experience</em> he or she seeks. At times, the goal sought will be self-evident to patient and [therapist]. At other times, the goal will lie out of awareness and will be difficult to ascertain&hellip;. The <em>golden thread in assessing</em> motivation lies in discovering the affect being sought in conjunction with <em>the behavior being investigated</em>.
