Assigning to the Patient Workbook

Overview

The Workbook is where you assign interactive materials for patients to complete between sessions. These include worksheets, infosheets, and assessments that reflect the therapeutic content you wish to share. By contrast, Resources are a separate section for static files, links, or external content. Learn more about adding resources here.
