Did you know that some insurance companies require a note to be completed, sealed, and signed within 24 hours? If this doesn’t make you anxious - you are rocking it and kudos to you for getting your note practice down! Seriously, this deserves a celebration.

Specializing in working with kids is one of the most challenging paths as a therapist.
For one thing you likely don’t have voluntary clients (hello precontemplation in the stages of change model!) that may lack insight into why they are even in therapy. I mean, flipping chairs in the classroom isn’t that bad right? That was the old me!
Document, document, document.
If every move you make feels like it needs to be documented - you’re kind of right. Of course we have our progress notes that document what occurred in session, however there are all kinds of other activities, according to HIPAA, that need to be documented in the client’s chart.
When you are in a solo practice (without admin support) or in a group practice responsible for your own referrals there is one thing that is sure to clog up your time outside of sessions - request from new clients to start therapy.

Treatment planning can be one of the most stressful AND important parts of therapy. It is, at the end of the day, what helps you identify if your therapy sessions are actually working.
