Between sessions, within your boundaries.

A resource you sent. A question they didn't ask. A small win they didn't mention. OutSession holds them until you next meet.

A week in OutSession

The week between

Small doubts that grow into cancellations and ghosting.

How can we improve the client experience of being in therapy?

  • This TikTok is exactly how I feel. Can I send it to my therapist?
  • Should I even bother going to therapy this week? Is it working?
  • I had something important... what was it?
  • Maybe I'll just ask ChatGPT. It often sounds right to me.

The premise

A space between sessions that leads back to you.

The week between sessions is noisier than it used to be. OutSession is designed to protect the therapeutic relationship within it, giving clients somewhere to keep what they find and a way to bring it to you.

Before the session

“Fine” is a hard place to start from.

Usually it isn't that nothing happened. The week is just hard to reach on the spot.

“How's your week been?”

Fine.

What it can mean ↓→

  • Tuesday feels like ages ago.

    A moment gets logged on the day, while it's fresh.

  • A song says it better than I can.

    They can save the song, video or post, and bring that instead.

  • I don't know how to put it into words.

    A drawing, or a few questions to answer, can be a way in.

  • It felt too small to bring up.

    A note keeps it until they're ready to share it, or it stays theirs.

What they might bring

Their week, communicated their way.

Everything stays private until they add it to the session board. If they do, it's somewhere to start from, not a list to get through.

  • Thought record

    The thought, and how they weighed it on their own.

  • Moment · Saturday

    A small win, kept on the night, that might not have come up otherwise.

  • Note · For next time

    What's on their mind, and that it's hard to say out loud.

  • Drawing

    Something that didn't fit into words yet.

  • Saved from TikTok

    What resonated, before they had the words for why.

  • Saved AI chat

    The conversation they were already having elsewhere, now where you can see it.

Some weeks the board is full. Some weeks it's empty. The session goes where it needs to either way.

What people say

“I used to say ‘I'll email you that’ and then forget. Now it's already in their space.”

A therapist · Integrative counsellor, Suffolk

“It's not trying to be my therapist.”

A client

“I don't get that awkward feeling I'm wasting their time, or mine, anymore.”

Evaluating OutSession

What it does, and what it doesn't.

It does

  • Offer small AI-assisted tailoring of worksheets

  • Show you what they place on the session board

  • Support email sign-in, if a client chooses it

  • Point to support when something worrying comes up

  • Work with AI switched off, client by client

It doesn't

  • Diagnose, advise, or hold a conversation

  • Message you, or alert you between sessions

  • Need a client's name or email

  • Act as a crisis service

  • Let client text train AI models

and what that means for both of you

For your practice

The week shows up in the room.

More engaged sessions

Clients arrive having chosen what to bring, so the session starts from their week rather than a blank page.

Fewer cancellations

The doubts that turn into skipping a week have somewhere to go, and a reason to come back.

A clearer sense of where they're at

A look at the session board before you meet shows what's been on their mind, in their own words.

For your clients

Their way in, at their pace.

More than one way to say it

Writing, drawing, keeping track, saving the video that said it better. Different ways to express things come up again and again as something that helps.

No pressure to talk

They can put something down while it's fresh and bring it when they're ready. Nothing has to be said out loud first.

Their call what's shared

Everything stays private until they place it on the session board. What goes on it, and when, is up to them.

Client side drawn from a scoping review of 71 studies on what young people say helps, and what doesn't, in therapy.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

A private studio for the week between sessions. They can write a thought record, keep a note, save a video that landed, or draw something. If you've allowed it, they can put any of that on a Session Board for you to read before you meet. You decide at setup whether sharing comes back to you at all, and whether the AI tools are on.
