SIMPLE Note Example

Parenting Stress During School Closures

Client is feeling overwhelmed by the stress of managing their children’s education during school closures.

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.

The 60-minute session took place at the therapist's office and focused on the stress the client is experiencing while managing their children’s education during ongoing school closures. Client stated, "I feel like I’m juggling too much at once," expressing frustration with balancing their own work while ensuring their kids keep up with virtual learning. Client shared difficulties staying organized and focused due to constant distractions. The therapist explored how homeschooling or overseeing online schooling can lead to emotional burnout for parents. Strategies discussed included setting realistic expectations, creating a structured daily routine, and allowing time for self-care. The therapist suggested dedicating specific times for work and school activities while scheduling moments to recharge. Client was hesitant but agreed to try incorporating more self-care during the week. Homework assigned is to create a daily schedule for the family that includes breaks and self-care moments. The next session is scheduled for next week to review progress.

Client Session Summary:

Today’s 60-minute session took place at the therapist's office and focused on the stress the client is experiencing while managing their children’s education during ongoing school closures. They said, "I feel like I’m juggling too much at once," expressing frustration with trying to balance their own work while ensuring their kids keep up with virtual learning. The client shared how difficult it has been to stay organized and focused with constant distractions. We explored how the added pressure of homeschooling or overseeing online schooling can create emotional burnout for parents.

We discussed strategies for setting realistic expectations, creating a structured daily routine, and allowing time for self-care. I suggested they set aside dedicated time for work and school activities while also scheduling moments to recharge. The client was hesitant but agreed to try making more time for themselves during the week. Their homework is to create a daily schedule for their family that includes breaks and self-care moments. We’ll check in next week to evaluate how it’s going.
