The program has 16 Steps with 12 of these typically completed in 30 group sessions held in accordance with the implementation site’s own needs and characteristics. Clients complete homework for each group prior to coming to a session. In group each client presents his or her homework and the facilitator passes the client to the next step or has the client redo the homework based on objective criteria. All MRT groups are open-ended meaning that new clients can enter an ongoing group at any time. Each group session will usually have new clients as well as some finishing the program. All MRT facilitators must complete basic MRT training.

The MRT Facilitator’s Handbook gives basic instructions as well as the objective criteria that should be used for each Step. Individuals who enter MRT training receive a copy of the MRT Facilitator’s Handbook, the Five-Minute Stress Manager, and Imaginary Future.
A 4-disc audio CD set is also available for the visually impaired.
