Sample Progress Note #2

D decided against applying for a position working abroad after a long decision making process. In session, she recognized that her approach involved trying to make the "perfect decision" by envisioning every possible thing that could go wrong. She is starting to see that her continual counterarguments in decision making are due to fears and anxieties, and that she can trust God's goodness regardless of outward appearances. The counselor encouraged D's insights and asked her to further explore themes of fear, anxiety, and God's goodness. The treatment plan includes following up on a book about running from fear, continuing to discuss God's goodness, and talking through possible career decisions.
