The purpose of this study is to clarify methods of life-rebuilding support for over-indebted debtors who are prone to impulse buying. First, the author analyzes the transcript of a counselor (Co.) interviewing a client (Cl.) then instructing the Cl. how to maintain regular household accounts and control shopping behavior. The first method the Co. demonstrates is to let the Cl. answer key points about how to keep household accounts and confirm whether this can be done. This method emphasizes the importance of maintaining a regular routine and developing motivation to keep a household account book. The second method is to let the Cl. answer key points about controlling shopping behavior, and to confirm whether the Cl. can do this. This has the same effect as the first method.
