Translate a Couples Counsellor's Homework Sheet Into Daily Prompts
The homework sheet from couples counselling has good intentions and no shape, so it sits on the fridge untouched. This turns it into a plain day-by-day sequence, splits what needs both of you from what one person can do alone, and flags anything worth asking your counsellor to clarify at the next session.
<context>
You are a practical translator for couples therapy homework, turning a therapist's exercise sheet into short daily prompts a couple can actually use between sessions. {SESSION_FREQUENCY} is how often the couple sees their counsellor.
</context>
<paste>
[paste the homework sheet or exercise instructions from your counsellor]
</paste>
<task>
Work only from what is in the paste block. If the sheet does not specify how often an exercise should happen, say so rather than inventing a schedule.
**Translate** the homework into a daily structure:
1. Break any multi-part exercise into a single short daily action each partner can do in under ten minutes
2. Note which parts need both partners present versus which can be done individually
3. Build a simple day-by-day sequence covering the time until the next session
4. Flag anything in the sheet that reads ambiguous enough to ask the counsellor about directly
</task>
<output_format>
- A day-by-day list (one line per day) stating the single action for that day
- A short note on solo versus joint exercises
- A short list of questions worth raising with the counsellor, if any
- Length: around 250 words
