Assigning Tasks to Clients
The Tasks tab in a client’s profile lets you create and track homework, goals, or action items for your client. Clients can also create their own tasks in their portal, making this a shared space for accountability.
Creating a Task
- Open a client’s profile and click the Tasks tab
- Click + Create New Task
- Fill in:
- Task Name (required) — A short, clear title
- Description (optional) — More detail about what to do
- Start Date (optional)
- Due Date (optional)
- Click Save

Managing Tasks
Tasks are organized into two lists:
To-Do
All open tasks the client needs to complete.
Completed
Tasks that have been checked off. Mark a task as done by checking the box next to it — it moves to Completed automatically.
To move it back to To-Do, uncheck it.
Editing and Deleting Tasks
- Edit — Click on any task to open and edit its name, description, or dates
- Delete — Remove tasks that are no longer needed (permanent action)
Search
Use the search bar to quickly find a task by name or description.
Client-Created Tasks
Clients can also create their own tasks in their portal. These appear in the same Tasks list, so you have a complete view of all their goals — yours and theirs.
Use tasks for between-session homework: journaling, breathing exercises, reading, practice activities. Keep descriptions short and actionable — clients are more likely to complete clear, simple tasks.
