Therapy interventions NOT to use in progress notes

Not all therapy interventions are created equally! There are great ways to explain what you did in therapy and there are phrases that are overused, unnecessary, or red flags for insurance audits.
Dr. Maelisa McCaffrey of QA Prep walks you through the interventions that you don't need in your counseling notes and why those interventions are unnecessary. She'll also give you some better therapy interventions to use in your case notes.

If everyone had a grandma and/or friends that provided unconditional positive regard and empathic listening, a lot less people would be in therapy.

my bartender provides empathic listening and unconditional positive regard🍺

I'm glad I live in a country where insurance companies accessing notes is not the norm!

As a program director and a small group practice owner, this was very helpful!

[@user-ep7fp6fj8f]

Loved this! Wanted to join live, but being able to watch the recording was so helpful!

Life Saver. Thank you. Stay Encouraged

Excellent content, I worked for a state contracted facility and the state note requirements were the same. I'm always trying to improve, mainly shorten, my notes which is why I joined your group. This is unsolicited feedback but said with care because your content is so awesome, if your interested in improving the delivery "um's" are pretty frequent (I do it too, it's so hard to stop!) Great job though, I so appreciate your knowledge and willingness to share and help.

Notes can take 15-20 minutes each for me. It takes too much time!

[@MaelisaMcCaffrey]

Yes, if you can get it down to 5-10 minutes that is much more manageable! Create a cheat sheet for yourself, create personalized checkboxes for your template, use bullet points... so many options to help save time while maintaining quality.

Thank you Melissa! I appreciate your content! ❤️

[@lacortneymaddox]

Thank you for these tips.

[@queencece3012]

Thank you for these videos! Can you discuss how much to put in the note. Sometimes, I feel like I do too much, lol

[@barbwilhelm2316]

I highly recommend checking out some of her trainings and materials. Prices are reasonable, and as you can see here, some things are great free information.

@@MaelisaMcCaffrey Thanks!!

[@hsinglu]

So the entire Person centered approach is being dismissed as a grandmom approach? How about all the research on common factors?

[@MaelisaMcCaffrey]

Oh it’s not being dismissed at all. But insurance does want to see that you are using a psychological approach and there’s some strategy to it to show that this is different from talking with a friend.

Imagine Dr. Freud listening to this…..

[@TherapyGirl-dy1iu]

We would need a “cocaine” intervention if Freud was listening!
