Psychotherapy Progress Note
A structured session-note sheet in SOAP format: one note per session, with exact start and stop times, a telehealth addendum, and a signature block. Print a stack and document as you go.
Free. Updated August 2026.
What's on the form
Who fills it in
The clinician, one sheet per session, as close to real time as the practice allows. The Subjective, Objective, Assessment, and Plan sections keep the note in the order payers and auditors expect, and the telehealth addendum covers modality, location, and consent for virtual sessions.
Before you hand it out
The last page of the PDF is a note to the practice, with a reminder to remove it before the packet is copied or handed out. Review the form with your clinical leadership and counsel first, and adapt anything that does not match how your practice runs.
