5 Reasons to Use a Therapy Planner if You Are a School-Based Therapist

Ever wonder what you can do to make your life easier as a school-based therapist? Whether you are a school-based occupational therapist, physical therapist, speech therapist or counselor, it can be very difficult to stay on top of all the paperwork requirements, scheduling and tasks. Using the Therapy Planner, whether printed or digitally can help you with your time management and organizational skills and who doesn’t need that kind of help!

Reasons to Use a Therapy Planner this Year

Here are 5 reasons to use a therapy planner:

Reason #1: It will help you to stay organized. School-based therapists have a tough job in terms of keeping all the paperwork requirements in an organized fashion. With large caseloads and different schools, it can be a daunting task to keep it all in order. A planner can help you to keep all your information in one location.

Reason #2: It will help with documentation. The Therapy Planners help you to keep track of attendance, evaluations that need to be completed, daily to-do lists, weekly planning, scheduling and more! If you need specific documentation forms for session visits check out the Data Tracking Forms.

Reason #3: It will help motivate you. By creating lists and notes, it will help you to be more productive and achieve that feeling of self-satisfaction when you can check a task off as completed.

Reason #4: It will help you with memory retrieval and formation. I know for myself, if I write something down then I am more likely to remember it. And if I do forget it, I can easily look up what I need to do in the planner.

Reason #5: It will help you to decrease your stress level. I always feel less overwhelmed if I break down tasks into smaller more manageable chunks. It helps me to be prepared and plan ahead versus stressing out right before a report, paperwork or presentation needs to be completed.

The new, updated planners are ready for you to get started on organizing your work life. The planners start in July 2022 and go through June 2023. There are two NEW forms added to help you set monthly goals for yourself and reflect on your own progress too!
