For example, if you book in a client for 6 sessions - leave 6 double page spreads in a row so you can easily flip between notes for the same client. Use the contents page as you go. This will help you to keep notes in order and pick up where you left off For long-term clients: Many people choose to dedicate an entire book to a single client. This will make note keeping a much smoother process, rather than having to search between multiple books. Develop your own system: Everyone should take notes in the way that makes sense to them. Many people just continue on how their supervisors taught them - but this may not be the best way for you. It is important however, (once you have established your system) to REMAIN CONSISTENT. This is one of the easiest ways to ensure your notes are organised. Book Features 8.5 x 11 inch 124 Pages Space for 50 sessions Printed on white paper Perfect bound book
