PIRP Note Example

Coping with Social Media Burnout

Client is struggling with feelings of burnout and stress related to social media use.

Generated PIRP 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.

Problem:
Client reported feeling totally burnt out from social media, experiencing anxiety when not checking updates and a decrease in self-esteem from comparisons to others.

Intervention:
During the 50-minute office session, the therapist discussed the stress cycle created by social media and the concept of setting boundaries with phone use. A 30-minute daily social media break was suggested to the client.

Response:
Client acknowledged the negative impact of social media and expressed nervousness about reducing usage. However, they agreed to attempt the suggested 30-minute break and monitor their feelings before and after the intervention.

Plan:
The therapist and client will review the effectiveness of the social media break in the next session to determine if adjustments to the strategy are necessary.

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.

In today’s 50-minute office session, client came in talking about feeling totally burnt out from social media. They said quote 'I feel like I can’t stop checking it, but it just makes me feel worse' unquote. They talked about how they’re constantly on their phone, checking updates, and comparing themselves to others, which is just eating away at their self-esteem. They mentioned feeling anxious when they’re away from it, like they’re missing out, but when they’re on it, it’s not doing them any good either.

We spent some time talking about how social media can create this cycle of stress, especially when it becomes, you know, almost addictive. We explored the idea of setting boundaries with their phone and how that might help reduce some of the anxiety. I suggested trying a 30-minute break from all social media every day and seeing how it feels. I also suggested they pay attention to how they’re feeling before and after the break, just to get a sense of whether it’s making a difference. They seemed pretty nervous about stepping away from their phone, but they were willing to give it a shot. We’ll follow up in our next session to see if it’s helping or if we need to adjust the plan.
