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.

Client met with therapist for a 30-minute session at the office. She talked about feeling overwhelmed by her role as a caregiver for her elderly mother. Ummm, she said she’s been feeling stressed and exhausted and doesn’t have much time for herself. She said, "I feel like I’m losing myself in all of this." We discussed the importance of self-care and setting boundaries. We explored some practical ways for her to take breaks and delegate some responsibilities. Client’s homework is to identify one activity she enjoys and schedule time for it each day. She seemed relieved to have a plan and eager to implement it. We’ll follow up in our next session next week.
