Client/Group progress summary	Jasiri arrived late and spoke for over 20 minutes. Her stress level has been low except for financial stress. She is doing well at school now, mentioning she was suffering from social anxiety but is much better now.
Reflection and self-evaluation	Having clients that are consistently late has been a good practice for me. I don't mind when other people are late, however, I get super anxious if I'm running late due to my husband's chronic tardiness. I normally would not encourage the client to talk for such a long time but it seemed it was exactly what she needed. She was listing all of her accomplishments since our last session and how good she felt about herself.
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.
Plan for next session	a session that she can do in bed when she is not feeling like getting up.
