Quill generated this note with AI from the summary that was provided. The therapist can then copy-and-paste the note into their current EHR platform.
Behavior:
Client presented looking worn out and immediately discussed feeling overwhelmed due to pregnancy and related emotional challenges. They expressed anxiety about the baby's health and the impending changes post-birth. Additionally, the client is concerned about their teenage daughter's new dating life, stating 'I’m just so worried, I don’t know if she’s ready for this'.
Intervention:
During the 50-minute in-office session, the therapist validated the client's feelings as normal considering the significant life changes. The therapist suggested focusing on controllable aspects such as creating a birth plan and discussing healthy relationships with their daughter. Time was spent on establishing potential boundaries with the daughter.
Response:
Client engaged in the discussion about coping strategies and boundary setting with their daughter. They appeared to become more grounded after considering actionable steps to manage their concerns.
Plan:
The client was assigned homework to have a conversation with their daughter about healthy relationships and to write down their major concerns regarding the pregnancy. The therapist and client agreed to reconvene next week to continue addressing these concerns.
Today’s session was 50 minutes, in-office. Client came in looking pretty worn out, and right away they started talking about how overwhelmed they’ve been. They’re pregnant and said quote 'Everything just feels so hard right now' unquote. They’ve been dealing with all the emotional ups and downs of pregnancy—feeling really anxious about the baby’s health and how things will change once the baby’s born. On top of that, their teenage daughter has just started dating, and it’s been adding to the stress. Client said quote 'I’m just so worried, I don’t know if she’s ready for this' unquote.
We talked about how it’s normal to feel overwhelmed with so many big life changes happening at once. I suggested focusing on what they can control, like creating a birth plan and having open conversations with their daughter about healthy relationships. We spent some time discussing boundaries they could set with their daughter, to keep her safe but also give her some room to grow. Their homework is to have that conversation with their daughter this week and to write down some of their biggest concerns about the pregnancy so we can tackle them one by one. They seemed a little more grounded by the end. We’ll meet again next week.
