Client/Group progress summary	Jasiri's stress level remains low (2-3) and states that all well . She was a little late today (6 minutes) and stated that she did not want to get out of bed today because she was tired. She continues to practice balancing poses and feel she is not "wobbling" any more.
Reflection and self-evaluation	I wanted to provide a session to reduce social anxiety by grounding, balancing and using cues to support self awareness. Jasiri enjoyed the session and stated she really needed the stretches provided.
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	Continue with strengthening poses and session to reduce social anxiety.
