Denial appeal
A draft appeal written in the payer's language.
You do not need thirty interventions. You need three that make sense for this client, this moment, and the work you have already done. Your Assistant starts there.
Ask your Assistant
Based on this client's current goals, recent responses, and what has or has not worked so far, suggest three specific interventions I could consider next session. Explain why each fits this client rather than giving me a generic technique list.

Recent sessions, treatment goals, prior interventions, and the client's response give the suggestions context.
Get a few options with a rationale instead of the therapeutic equivalent of a Pinterest board.
Adapt, discard, or take one into the room. The intervention is a suggestion, not a clinical command.
The specific techniques a therapist uses in session to move treatment forward: cognitive restructuring, behavioral activation, exposure, grounding, chain analysis, role play and many more, each tied to a modality and a treatment goal.
Start from the treatment goal and the client's history: what has already worked, what they resisted, what the last few sessions surfaced. A long list of interventions is a starting point; the fit with this client and this moment is the decision.
Three interventions for the next session, not thirty, grounded in the client's history, treatment plan and what has already worked with them. Each comes with the reasoning so you can accept, adapt or reject it.
Ask for three more, or tell it what to avoid and why. It works from the client's history, so a reason such as exposure did not land last time changes the next set.
