What Do I Do Next? Therapist Session Brainstormer

Build a session pivot

Choose what is happening in the room. The tool will suggest questions, activities, pacing shifts, and transition ideas you can adapt.

What is happening right now?

Client / session type

Session phase

What do you want to shift toward?

Energy in the room

Time remaining

Optional context note

Privacy cue: use initials or non-identifying labels when appropriate. This tool stores saved ideas only in this browser/device.

Your session-shift ideas

Three different ways to move the session forward without forcing one “right” next step.

1. Name the stuck moment

Choose the option that best matches what is happening right now. You do not need a perfect label.

2. Choose the direction you want

Select the session goal, energy, and time remaining. The app uses those choices to prioritize different kinds of shifts.

3. Generate and adapt

You will receive three different ideas. Use Give Me Another to replace only one idea, or Give Me a New Set to refresh all three.

4. Save what fits your style

Saved ideas stay in local browser storage on this device. They do not sync automatically across devices.

Important

This is a brainstorming and workflow aid. It does not assess risk, diagnose, make treatment decisions, or replace clinical judgment, supervision, emergency procedures, or your organization’s policies.
