Client/Group progress summary	Client was feeling overall body and joint pain for about two weeks. Practicing yoga didn't help with the pain. Client will schedule a doctor appointment to find the cause for the body pain. The client's mental health is good and have the usual level of stress.
Reflection and self-evaluation	I modified the plan for the session to accommodate the client's need.
Final Client/Group Report	After 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.
