Choose a Scenario
01
The Flat Room
Depression Black Woman Systemic Harm
Your client arrives with flat affect. She has been coming for six weeks and something shifted. Navigate what is present without pushing past what she can hold.
02
The Joke That Landed
Relational Harm Friendship Belonging
Your client discloses that her friend called her a slut as a joke. She says it was whatever. Navigate the joke frame, the loyalty pressure, and what is actually underneath.
03
The Flooded Room
Anxiety First-Gen Immigrant Religious Context
Your client arrives activated -- talking fast, visibly distressed. She is a first-generation immigrant woman whose family and pastor both have opinions about her being in therapy at all.
From Your Real Sessions -- Level 2
04
The Early Pivot
Suicide Risk Black Woman Operational Defense
Built from your Jamila Rawlins session. Navigate the opening of a high-risk session with a client who communicates in protocols. Three choices -- all defensible. None obvious.
05
The Rainbow Moment
Grief Externalization Family Estrangement
Built from your Ingrid Andersson session. You have just done the black stone exercise. What you do next determines whether the insight lands or gets buried under technique.
06
The Name and the Recovery
Passive Ideation Rupture Repair Defended Presentation
Built from your Elena Darwish session. You called her the wrong name twice. She is flat, guarded, and questioning why she came. Navigate the rupture and find the one alive thread.
07
The Violin Moment
Intergenerational Korean-American Adolescent
Built from your Mina Park session. Her father sold his violin to come to America. Now he is offering money for a business degree. Navigate what happens when you stay with that disclosure versus move to practicality.
08
Whose Dream Is This?
Differentiation of Self Korean-American Adolescent
Continues from Mina. The root has been excavated. Now the work shifts -- helping her separate her own dream from the family narrative without positioning her against the people she loves.
09
Marcus: FORGING Before the Task
Depression First-Gen Latino Burden Schema
Built from your Marcus Hernandez sessions. Session 2 opens with homework to check. The trap is going to the tasks before the person. Practice pausing and going to F first -- every time the task wants to pull you forward.
