Therapy Companion: A Guided Reflection Journal

Therapy: Everyone says that you only get out of it what you put into it. But sometimes you can be too tongue-tied, emotional, or just plain preoccupied to give your all to every session. When distractions or counterproductive feelings arise, think of this well-planned notebook as a helpful companion for making the most of every visit with your therapist.

• Organize your thoughts with insightful prompts that help you set goals, keep track of barriers and breakthroughs, and stay empowered throughout your therapy journey.
• Use the pre-session check-in sections to nail down your most important topics for the day and avoid that “I don’t know where to start” feeling.
• Reflect on every session and get your key takeaways down in writing—before you have a chance to forget them.
• Consult graphic tools to find the precise words that express what you’re going through. (Are you really angry? Or is it actually envy, frustration, or loneliness that you’re experiencing?)
• Explore important topics that will support your therapy, like self-care fundamentals, how to know whether your therapist is a good fit, mindfulness techniques, and more.
• With a balanced blend of structure and flexibility, this journal will guide you through 20 complete sessions, whether you’re just starting out with therapy or well on your way.
• Although this journal was created by a team of therapists and designers, it is meant as a companion to your regular therapy practice, not a replacement.
• Made in Massachusetts.
