Tips for Using TherapySheets
-
Send a worksheet home with your client
Many clients appreciate a balance between discussing in session and having something tangible to read and reflect on afterward. Consider introducing a worksheet briefly during the last five minutes of your session, and send it home with them. Remind them that it isn’t mandatory homework, just a tool if they choose to use it.
-
Use a poem to spark group discussion.
If you’re working with multiple clients (in couples, family, or group therapy), consider using a poem to spark conversation. Make it interactive by having each person read a part aloud. Afterwards, go around the room and invite each person to share how they relate to the poem and why. Keep it light and engaging!
-
Use TherapySheets content as inspiration.
You don’t need to print out the worksheets to use them effectively. Many are packed with valuable discussion questions that can help guide sessions with clients you may feel stuck with. Save a worksheet on your phone to reference whenever you need fresh ideas!
-
Incorporate worksheets into check-ins
Use TherapySheets worksheets to facilitate check-ins at the beginning or end of sessions. This can help clients summarize their progress, voice concerns, or reflect on new goals. It’s an easy way to keep sessions structured and focused on growth.
