Phase 7 closure sequence

When time is up but processing is incomplete, Phase 7 closure protects the client between sessions. Container + calm-safe place + between-session log.

Closure sequence
  • Acknowledge incomplete work
  • Container installation — everything back in
  • Calm/safe place re-installed
  • Grounding — orient to room, day, time
  • Between-session log given
  • Follow-up plan (call, text, next session)
Notes for reeval (Phase 8) next session
