She and the therapist explore the reasons for this, and he encourages her to analyze why this might be, so she can repeat these positive behaviors. They explore the ramifications for the family of her going back to school and conclude that the change may be positive in reinforcing the children's independence.

The session ends with the therapist asking the client what has worked well for her in their sessions together and she mentions specific behaviors and techniques. On a final note, they determine the theme of friendship and social support as something the client should explore with her ongoing counselor.
