The Canadian Model of Performance and Engagement (CMOP-E) is a client-centered practice that looks at empowering individuals in the occupations that they perform and engage in through a dynamic interaction of person, environment, and occupation (PEO) (Townsend & Polatajko 2007). The CMOP-E is a framework that is based on the patient's values therefore the initial steps are vital to build strong rapport, establish trust and create a collaborative atmosphere where the patient- Jim, feels comfortable (Townsend & Polatajko 2007).

Jim seems to be in denial of his issues when he states that he finds his relationship with his mother ‘normal’ and does not seem to be concerned of his self-care by wearing clothes too small and having unbrushed hair.

Once the performance concerns have been identified, the collaboration of CPPF and CMCE would follow next. The collaborative goal setting in CPPF would blend pleasure and productivity to ensure Jim has a positive experience to reinforce competence (Pierce, 2000). Townsend & Polatajko (2007) states that the CMCE provides enablement skills that would be cross functional in CPPF however, to be successful, these enablement skills must be provided to the individual in a timely
