What term best describes a meeting after the final counseling session to check progress?

• A. Initial session
• B. Follow-up meeting
• C. Session wrap
• D. Case conference

Answer: (B)

After counseling has progressed, a follow-up meeting is used to check progress. This check-in focuses on how well the client is meeting the goals set earlier, what changes have occurred, and what steps, if any, should come next. It helps determine whether to continue with more sessions, adjust the plan, or conclude the process. It’s different from the initial session, which is about building rapport and establishing goals; from a session wrap, which would be a closing activity for a single session; and from a case conference, which is a meeting among professionals to discuss the case rather than a direct progress check with the client.
