Check in between sessions on progress, missed payments and questions
An agent can draft a check-in from the action list. The counsellor still reads anything that suggests hardship, a legal issue or a plan that is not working, and replies in person when it matters.
Talk with a client who is overwhelmed, behind on a plan, or facing recovery action
This needs care and judgement, including when they should get legal or financial advice the counselling role cannot give, and it should come from the counsellor.

Build or update a budget and a debt-management picture from the client's figures
An agent can categorise debts and draft a first budget. The counsellor decides what is realistic for this household, and what to do first, without sliding into credit-repair promises that cannot be kept.
Write a session note and a short, agreed action list for the next review
An agent can draft this from the session. The counsellor checks that the actions are the ones they agreed, and that the wording is respectful rather than shaming.
