Session Prep when you need it
How AirNote’s automatic Session Prep brings the client’s history, recent work and useful follow-ups together before your next appointment.
2 min read
In a busy private practice, the space between appointments can disappear into notes, messages and practical decisions. Returning to a client’s work then asks something more demanding: remembering what mattered, where you paused and what you agreed to revisit.
Session Prep is a short clinical refresher that helps you reconnect with the client before the next appointment. It brings the most useful context and unfinished threads into one place.
What Session Prep holds
Formulation overview: A brief reminder of the client’s current psychological context and the patterns relevant to the work.
Follow-ups: Unfinished therapeutic work, agreed between-session activity, your own commitments and personally meaningful events whose outcomes may still be unknown.
Possible directions: Thoughtful options grounded in the client’s priorities and recent work, for you to consider as the next session unfolds.
Prepared automatically, grounded in the work
AirNote automatically generates Session Prep after a completed session, ready for the next appointment with that client. It combines the most recent session’s transcript with the client’s Running Formulation.
The formulation draws on saved notes across earlier sessions, keeping the client’s wider history, goals and patterns in view. The latest transcript brings particular attention to what happened last time: the therapeutic work, the client’s response, agreed actions and where an exploration paused.
This wider context supports meaningful connections, while the recent detail keeps the prep grounded and specific. Planned events retain their status, and possible directions remain suggestions for your consideration.
More attention for the client
When you open the upcoming session in AirNote, your prep is already there. A brief read can replace repeated searching through records, helping you pick up important threads and remember commitments that might otherwise get lost in a busy week.
Across a full caseload, that reduces preparation time and the effort of holding every detail in memory. You begin with a clearer sense of continuity and more attention available for the client’s priorities today.
