Between Sessions

The Companion Journal for Therapy Clients

Therapy is one hour a week. Everything else happens in between. This journal is for everything else.

This is for:

For the therapy client who wants to make more of their sessions — capturing breakthroughs between appointments and arriving with something real to work with.

You'll produce:your Your Between Sessions Journal

The Name It First Experience

The session ends and life keeps going. The insight you had on the drive home, the thing you noticed at 11pm on Thursday, the moment you knew you needed to bring up but talked yourself out of — this journal gives them all a place to land. Arrive at your next session with something real to work with. The output is not a diary. It is The Between Sessions Agreement.

You can opt into 30-, 60-, and 90-day check-ins from your account. We recommend you do — the point is to see what changed.

Sample questions

  1. What do you most want to work through in the time ahead?
  2. What has shifted for you since you started this work — even something small?
  3. What came up this week that you want to bring to your next session?
  4. What are you noticing about yourself right now that feels worth paying attention to?

The Essential path takes you to your finished document by the questions that matter most. The Full-depth path walks every question, every scenario, every angle. Both produce the same signed document — one just goes deeper on the way there.

Essential path

Shorter sessions. The questions that go directly to the document.

Full depth

Every question. Every scenario, every angle.

Paper doesn’t change its mind.

Thoughts change. Documents don’t. The answers you write are there when you return — unchanged by memory or mood.

You won’t just feel clearer — you’ll have written proof of what you decided.

Writing is the mechanism by which internal clarity becomes external evidence. Evidence you can return to, share, and hold someone — including yourself — accountable to.

Every question is answerable by everyone.

Every question in every title is answerable by the person for whom the assumed experience is true and by the person for whom it is not. No reader is excluded by how a question is built.
