BIRP Note Example

Self-Identity Issues

Client is exploring self-identity issues using IFS therapy.

Generated BIRP Note:

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 expressed feelings of confusion about his identity and conveyed a sense of living an inauthentic life. Client stated, "I don’t even know who I am anymore."

Intervention:
The therapist conducted a 45-minute session using Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy to help the client identify and communicate with different parts of himself.

Response:
Client appeared curious and open to the IFS approach and engaged actively in the therapeutic process.

Plan:
Client was assigned to journal about the different parts identified and their feelings as homework. The next session is scheduled for next week to continue exploring the IFS therapy.

Client Session Summary:

Here's the summary of this client session. Remember, Quill does not record the client session. A therapist would provide a summary (like the one below) after the session is over.

During today’s 45-minute session, client talked about feeling confused about his identity and mentioned he feels like he’s living a life that’s not his own. He said, "I don’t even know who I am anymore." We used Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy to identify and communicate with different parts of himself. Client’s homework is to journal about the different parts he identified and their feelings. He seemed curious and open to exploring this approach. We’ll meet again next week.
