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.

Adjustments and adaptations you made to your care plan,

Because the lack of the client's commitment to home practices and respect for my time, the session ended sooner than what I had planned for (ended after 4 sessions instead of eight).

Client/Group Goals

There was no progression towards the goals, i.e., developing regular practices that will help reduce stress and inflammation as well as manage fatigue and pain. She did not have regular practices and did not want to commit to them.

One home practice that she would do was breathing.

Report briefly on each Kosha belowProgress toward wellness or worsening reported by the client/group or that you observed in the following areas
Physical level

The chronic inflammation of the skin approved; she was less itchy, and her skin looked better than in the first session.
The pain level remained the same, although it did not interfere with her enjoyment of life.

Energetic level

Energetic level did not change. Her energy changed from fatigue to hyperactivity.

Emotional

Emotional layer did not change. The client was highly reactive to whatever happened around her.

Intellectual / Sense of self

She continued to be very stubborn. She felt that the body could heal itself and refused to get help from health care professional.

Spiritual orientation and support plan

Her parents are spiritual leaders. She is a Bhakti yogi. Kirtan lifts her spirit, and this could be a great support for the client.

Additional Information
Feedback received from client/group, anecdotal or written

The client thought that the sessions were helpful, especially breathing practices.

Sample of homework given between sessions (after initial homework)

Three-part breathing followed by alternate nostril10 minutes and throughout the day.

Personal reflection from doing client/group.
Rough estimate of time spent in preparation and follow up documentation per session2
What you would change with benefit of hindsight

I felt that I did everything I could with this client.

Questions, problems, areas in which you’d like more support

I received a lot of emotional support from the mentor when I struggled to work with the client. Thank you.

Did you enjoy your service?

No because it was very stressful when the client did not show up on time, cancelled the session last minutes and did not commit to home practices.
