How counselors use them

Ready for This Week’s Sessions

Each one has structure a client can follow, in a group or one on one.

Pick One for the Concern

Match the resource to what the client brought in: anxious thoughts, worry, self-esteem, low mood.

Print It or Send One Link

Hand a printable across the desk, or text one link to an interactive tool the client opens on a phone.

Review It Next Session

The client does the work between appointments and brings it back, so the next session starts where the last one ended.

Written by a clinician
