Generated SIMPLE 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.

Client discussed his fear of public speaking during today's 50-minute session, expressing extreme anxiety about an upcoming work presentation. Client described physical symptoms including sweating and shaking when anticipating speaking in front of others. He stated, "The thought of standing in front of a crowd makes me panic." The therapist introduced exposure therapy and gradual desensitization as interventions. Client was assigned homework to practice speaking in front of a mirror and to a small, supportive audience. He appeared nervous but was willing to undertake these exercises. The therapist plans to review the client's progress with these exercises in the next session, scheduled for two weeks from today.
