Data:
Session duration: 45 minutes. Client discussed feeling pressured by friends to engage in behaviors they are uncomfortable with, stating, "I don’t want to be the odd one out, but I don’t like what they’re doing." Client expressed feeling torn between fitting in and staying true to their values. Therapist validated client’s feelings and emphasized the importance of asserting boundaries. Role-played scenarios involving peer pressure and practiced assertive responses. Client appeared nervous but expressed willingness to try practicing these skills.
Assessment:
Client is making progress in recognizing the impact of peer pressure and exploring ways to assert boundaries. Client responded to role-playing interventions with some nervousness but demonstrated openness to practicing assertive communication. Progress aligns with treatment goals of improving self-confidence and boundary-setting skills.
Plan:
Client will reflect on one situation in the next week where they can assert a boundary and consider how it went. Next session will continue to explore their experiences with practicing these skills and further develop assertiveness strategies.
In today’s 45-minute session, the client shared how they feel pressured by their friends to engage in behaviors they’re uncomfortable with. They said, "I don’t want to be the odd one out, but I don’t like what they’re doing," explaining how torn they feel between fitting in and staying true to their values. We discussed how peer pressure is a normal part of adolescence but how it’s important to learn how to assert boundaries in a way that feels authentic. I validated their feelings and emphasized that it’s okay to say "no" even if it feels uncomfortable.
We worked through a few scenarios where they might face peer pressure and role-played some ways to handle the situation assertively. I suggested they practice saying "no" in smaller, less risky situations to build confidence for more challenging moments. Client seemed a bit nervous but was willing to give it a try. Their homework is to think of one situation in the next week where they could assert a boundary and reflect on how it went. We’ll talk more next session about how they feel after practicing these skills.
