Group Therapy Notes Template | Fillable PDF Session Log for LCSW LPC | Clinical Documentation, Participant Tracker, Counseling Form

Group therapy paperwork is its own animal. You're tracking attendance, engagement, group dynamics, interventions, and a clinical note for every participant — all in a format that has to hold up to a documentation review, supervisor sign-off, or insurance audit.

The Group Therapy Notes Template is a fillable PDF built for licensed clinicians (LCSW, LPC, LMFT, LMHC, psychologists, and mental health counselors) who need clean, defensible documentation without rebuilding a form every week.

WHAT'S INSIDE:
- Session header: group name and type, date, session number, facilitator and co-facilitator
- Participant grid for up to 12 attendees — name or client code, attendance, and engagement rating
- Session theme and focus area
- Interventions delivered — structured checklist plus a freeform notes field
- Group dynamics observations — conflict, alliance, subgroups, absences affecting the group
- Per-participant clinical notes column for individual progress documentation
- Risk and safety flags
- Plan for next session and follow-up tasks
- Facilitator signature and credential line

WHO IT'S FOR:
- Licensed professional counselors (LPC, LPCC) running process or psychoeducational groups
- Licensed clinical social workers (LCSW, LMSW) in agency or private practice settings
- Marriage and family therapists, addiction counselors, and group facilitators
- Private practice owners who need consistent group documentation across clinicians
- Graduate interns and supervisees building a clean documentation habit
