Workshop Description: This 90-minute workshop is designed to help mental health professionals learn how to write efficient and effective session notes.

The second half of this workshop will focus on collaborative treatment planning and how to write treatment plans. Attendees will receive a template for session notes and treatment plans (Word document or Google forms: both able to be edited).
