Perspective Taking: Sunglasses Worksheet

The Perspective Taking: Sunglasses Worksheet is a visual, engaging tool designed to help clients explore how different people may think and feel about the same situation. Using a “glasses” metaphor, clients are encouraged to step into another person’s perspective and reflect on both thoughts and emotions related to a specific event.

This resource is especially helpful for clients who struggle with empathy, social interpretation, emotional regulation, or rigid thinking patterns. It can be used to process real-life situations, role-play social scenarios, or reflect on past conflicts in a structured, non-threatening way.

The worksheet includes multiple versions that allow clinicians to explore perspectives from two or more individuals, making it flexible for individual therapy, family work, group sessions, and school-based counseling.

What’s included:

• 3 printable PDF worksheets

• Clear sections for identifying Thoughts and Feelings for each person involved

Important Notes:

• For professional use by mental health providers, educators, and support professionals.
