Client/Group progress summary

This client has such amazing growth during our time with respect to her centering and breathing.
She still has some work in regards to her physical movement and connection to her physical body, which I am hoping we will continue to work together.

Reflection and self-evaluation

We both adapted to where she ws at for every session. Which is part of the learning for myself and her to be able to witness and do the work accordingly.

Final Client/Group ReportAfter seeing your client/group (for at least 4 sessions including interactive intake)
Please remember practicum is a learning experience. You’ll learn more from sharing what’s accurate than from what might “look good”. Things you did well, not so well, problems and questions are all valid and useful tools to teach you. We can’t serve you to become the best clinician you can be if you don’t share your challenges and mistakes. Success is anything from which you learn. You can continue to add Session entries after submitting this Final Client/Group Report.
