Client/Group progress summary

This group is always absorbing what the lesson is during the sessions and sharing stories which help guide our time together as well.

Reflection and self-evaluation

It is so important to take that time in the beginning for a little sharing, everyone becomes more connected o each other and themselves.

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.
Plan for next session

Keep teaching stress management tools.
