Activities

Centering and grounding. Check-in. Discussion of intake form responses, details documented in intake submission. Physical and breath assessments. Seated spinal warm-up.

Client/Group progress summary

N/A. Initial session.

Reflection and self-evaluation

Along with physical pain and recovery, the client’s concern about cognitive decline and difficulty with word retrieval is evident. I am giving the intake discussion process too much time in the session. Cover highlights and allow more information to be revealed in later sessions.

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

As per care plan with consideration for client’s pain level.
