Client/Group progress summary

Group is engaged - fun to see some camaraderie. There were some good shares. people seem appreciative.

Reflection and self-evaluation

This was a good second gathering. Can't believe how wiped out I am after each session. Not fun. Trusting this might get better for me over time. I definitely want to get some support for this in the New Year.

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.
