A day in the life of a Therapists and Counselor: what changes with these prompts.
Track progress as a memberNadia, a licensed professional counselor in a small group practice.
Nadia starts Wednesday with a client who has panic attacks at work. She opens ChatGPT and uses the Session Prep And Planning prompts to shape a grounded, client-centered plan. She keeps names out and uses only the details she needs: tight chest before meetings, fear of being watched, and a goal to stay in the room for ten minutes.
After the session, she drafts progress notes in Claude with the Documentation And Progress Notes prompts. The rough notes become clear and professional, and she checks them against her own wording. Before lunch, she uses Gemini with the Client Communication And Psychoeducation prompts to turn breathing and grounding ideas into a one-page handout for a teen who is anxious about school.
At 3 p.m. a client mentions scary intrusive thoughts. Nadia turns to the Crisis And Safety Planning prompts and creates a calm safety plan with warning signs, coping steps, people to call and a clear next contact. She reviews it with the client and saves it in the record system.
By 5 p.m. her notes are done and her handouts are ready. She leaves on time, walks her dog, and cooks dinner without opening her laptop again.
