On the basis of sorting out the existing records of progress notes, this article introduces the Progress Note Log, which, with the SOAP template as the reference, is devised by the Clinical Psychology Registration Committee of the Chinese Psychological Society and is expected to be used by peers who are in the same line of work for reference to promote the professional development and standardization of psychological counseling case work.
