Client/Group progress summary

Client has truly gained a lot of benefit during our time together. I trust she'll carry it forward and apply it to her daily life and personal growth going forward.

Reflection and self-evaluation

I'm most grateful to have had the opportunity to work with RA. Our interaction was different - never felt like I was able to get an accurate feel for her experience with all that we worked on. Wondering if this was my own lack of self-confidence and/or expectations for her experience and progress. Good to remember to show up to the best of my ability and trust the process with the client.

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

At this time, we have no plans to meet again.
