Before you begin
Denise Walker, 52 · she/her
Private practice, telehealth
- Client background
- Denise's mother died four months ago. Since the funeral she has read a stack of grief books, and they have left her with a new worry on top of the grief: that she is doing it wrong, or taking too long.
- Where this session starts
- This is your third video session with Denise. She starts before you have settled in, asking straight out for a timeline — what she is supposed to be doing by now, and how to stop feeling like she is getting grief wrong.
- Your practice goal
- Respond to a direct request for advice without giving advice and without refusing.
- How to begin
- Start practicing to read Denise's opening statement, then respond in your counselor role. Pick up the dialogue naturally from that statement—there's no need to introduce yourself or restart the session.
This is a simulated practice exercise with an AI client. You can request hints, rewind a turn, or pause for silence whenever you need. Detailed coaching feedback is provided after you finish.
- Up to 8 turns, 5 minutes.
- Stuck? Coaching tools are one tap away: get a hint, rewind, or pause with silence.
- The client is fictional. Please don’t type anything about real people.
Afterward, a free account gives you access to three scenarios. No card needed.
