Just when I start stressing, you come along and put everything about documentation in proper perspective. I am so grateful for your generosity in sharing your expertise around documentation.
You're welcome! Always glad to help :)
So refreshing to hear I don't need to do full sentences!! This saves so much time! Thank you
Makes it so much easier to read, too! ;)
I would like to see what a note looks like with bulllet points.
Me too
Me as well, I would really appreciate seeing this demonstrated
Could you provide a video how to write TIPS notes? Themes, Internecions, Plan and safety? What to avoid writing in your notes, especially if we think about court orders,,,
I like to use person centered approach but i am not sure how to document the approach since is it non directive therapy.
It is in the description section.
Every weekend, stressed with the back long of documentation I need to complete.
Thank you so much for your very informative video. It is very helpful .
No matter how many videos I watch or tutorials I do, I cannot get this down to be a short, non painful aspect of the job. I'm so frustrated with myself as it is making me a very inefficient clinician and I'm tired of my lack of progress in this area. I'm so frustrated.
It is a really frustrating task for sooooo many therapists! And it may always be annoying, but it CAN get easier. Like laundry and dishes, notes will always pile up each day if we're not on top of them. However, there are strategies to make them more simple. Also, self-compassion is key!!! Without self-compassion, the struggle will never cease.
Bullet points FTW! 😊
All well and good until you stand in coroner court explain what your notes mean and them ripping to shreds how ambiguous they are
True, the point is not actually to make your notes ambiguous. It's to make them personalized to the individual client, but to do so more easily.
I don't see a link for the free intervention list
