Therapy Termination Form Printable PDF | LCSW LPC Discharge Summary, Counseling Closure Note, Private Practice Documentation

Termination is the paperwork most clinicians under-build — and the one a licensing board, auditor, or returning client is most likely to ask about. This Therapy Termination & Discharge Summary gives licensed professional counselors, LCSWs, LMFTs, and private practice owners a clean, defensible one-page record of how the work ended, what changed, and what comes next.

- Client identifier field, treatment start date, end date, and total session count
- Reason for termination checkboxes: goals achieved, client-initiated, clinician-initiated, mutual, no-show pattern, insurance change, relocation, referred out, other
- Presenting concerns at intake (brief narrative section)
- Treatment goals at intake, copied directly from your treatment plan
- Progress toward each goal with a simple rating scale
- Interventions and modalities used during the course of care
