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.
Problem:
Client presented with increased tension and anxiety related to the upcoming election. They reported, "I can’t stop thinking about it, and it’s making me physically sick." Client described the impact of media on their anxiety and sleep disturbances.
Intervention:
The 50-minute session was conducted in the therapist's office. The therapist discussed the impact of the political climate and suggested setting boundaries with media consumption. Interventions included discussing self-care strategies and focusing on controllable aspects of the client's life.
Response:
Client initially expressed uncertainty but agreed to attempt reducing news and social media exposure. They also agreed to engage in grounding activities such as exercise, meditation, or creative pursuits to manage anxiety.
Plan:
The client's homework is to limit media consumption and practice self-care activities. The therapist will follow up on the client's progress with these strategies in the next session.
Today’s 50-minute session was at the office, and the client came in looking really tense. They jumped right in, saying how anxious they’ve been feeling about the upcoming election. They said quote 'I can’t stop thinking about it, and it’s making me physically sick' unquote. They talked about how every time they turn on the news or look at social media, it just ramps up their anxiety, but they can’t seem to stop checking because they feel like they need to stay informed. They said it’s even affecting their sleep—waking up in the middle of the night worrying about what’s going to happen.
We talked about how overwhelming the political climate can be, especially with all the uncertainty. I suggested setting some boundaries with media consumption, like limiting how much time they spend watching the news or scrolling through political content on social media. We also discussed focusing on things they can control, like getting involved with a local cause or just taking time for self-care. Their homework is to try cutting down on news and social media for the next few days and see if it helps reduce some of the anxiety. I also suggested they try to focus on activities that make them feel grounded, whether it’s exercise, meditation, or something creative. They seemed unsure at first, but by the end of the session, they said they’d try to limit their media intake and see how it goes. We’ll check back next session to see if it’s helping.
