Assembled by The Sage from the session record — this is preparation, never clinical judgment · fictional

Suggested focus — ranked, with reasons

Built from three signals: threads left open in the record, what the last session changed, and what the client has been writing in their journal. These are suggestions, not instructions — you decide in the room.

Things that are easy to lose track of across a caseload: dropped threads, parts that need attention, and open questions the record won't answer by itself. Severity means how soon to look, not how alarmed to be. Every flag links to its source sessions — the judgment call on each one is yours, not the system's.

Private by default — a note stays in your records unless you choose to push it, and pushed notes appear in the client's app under your name. The Sage also pulls your own in-session instructions out of the recordings, so what you asked for at the end of one session is still on record at the start of the next.

On record

Found In Process Unburdened follow-up

Found — noticed, not really worked with yet, with protective parts active around it. In Process — being worked with: heard and understood from a calm place, not finished. Unburdened — the part has let go of what it was carrying. Follow-up — unburdened, but with work still ongoing, rather than a new, easier role.

Parts have roles. A manager works ahead of time to keep old pain from being touched. A firefighter reacts fast when pain breaks through anyway. Managers and firefighters are both protectors — same aim, different timing. An exile carries the pain they protect.

Stated goals — the client's own words, tracked

What the client sees

The client's own view of this same record includes a weekly Becoming statement — a short note on what's changing for them, week by week, written from the sessions — plus journal prompts and a page of your shared notes back to them, dated and sourced. Nothing in the therapist seat is hidden from the client except this prep surface; the underlying record is one shared source of truth.

How the client's parts connect — Self at the center, protectors linked to the exiles they guard. Drag any node. Hover to see a part's connections. Click one to open its full record.

Techniques from this practice, written up as repeatable protocols instead of left as session memories — each linked to the session where it first appeared. One library per practitioner: your own methods, documented, usable across your whole caseload.

What this demo is

This is the real therapist seat of The Sage, running on three invented clients — Maya (burnout and boundaries), Marcus (addiction rooted in trauma), and Priya (a controlling mother and a wounded faith). Every part, session, quote, and flag was authored for this demonstration. Switch clients in the sidebar; everything on every view is per-client.

What it demonstrates

Session prep, assembled — where the work is, what to check first, what's queued, what happened between sessions.
Flags with severity and sources — dropped threads, parts that need attention, and open questions the system deliberately leaves to you. It flags; you judge.
A living record per client — every part a profile with history and click-through, every session summarized with releases called out, goals tracked against the sessions where they moved.
A methods library — the practitioner's own techniques, documented as repeatable protocols.

The fine print

The Sage is an independent product and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or certified by any therapy training organization or institute. It is a companion tool that supports a clinician's work and is never a substitute for clinical judgment. All personas fictional; no real client data appears anywhere on this page.
