SOAP Note Example

Parenting and Financial Struggles

Client is balancing the stress of raising a child with a learning disability and ongoing financial difficulties.

Generated SOAP 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.

Subjective:
Client reported feeling overwhelmed with their son's learning disability, stating 'It’s just so hard to see him struggle, and I feel helpless.' They also expressed concern about financial worries impacting their ability to provide additional help for their son.

Objective:
The 60-minute virtual session focused on the client's challenges with their son's school performance and personal financial stress. Client appeared tired but engaged in the discussion.

Assessment:
Client is experiencing significant stress related to their son's learning difficulties and their financial situation. They are, however, motivated to advocate for their son and seek out available resources.

Plan:
Assigned homework to contact the school to initiate support for their son. The therapist and client will reconvene in two weeks to evaluate progress and continue support strategies.

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.

We had a 60-minute virtual session today. Client logged in looking pretty tired, said they’ve been struggling a lot lately with their son’s learning disability. They said quote 'It’s just so hard to see him struggle, and I feel helpless' unquote. They talked about how their son’s been having a really tough time in school, and it’s been affecting his confidence. On top of that, the client mentioned they’re also dealing with financial worries, which has made it harder to get their son the extra help he needs.

We spent some time talking about how they can advocate for their son at school, maybe look into getting him an IEP or other support services. I suggested reaching out to the school to see what free resources might be available, and we talked about how they can encourage their son at home, reminding him that struggling doesn’t mean failure. We also touched on the financial stress, and I suggested looking into local programs that offer financial assistance or sliding scale options for tutoring. Their homework is to call the school and start the process of getting more support for their son. They seemed a little more hopeful by the end. We’ll meet again in two weeks to see how things are going.
