Non-Profit Counselling Client Experience Survey
Measures how clients experience counselling delivered by a non-profit — trust in their counsellor, progress toward goals, and barriers to attending sessions. Built for program managers and supervisors tracking access gaps and impact for funders. The AI follow-up interview uncovers the story behind each client's progress and recommendation ratings, beyond a simple score.

Q07
AI InterviewRequired
Explore the story behind the respondent's progress rating: what specific changes, or lack of changes, they've noticed in daily life, thoughts, or relationships since starting counselling. If they reported low progress or flagged barriers, probe exactly what got in the way — scheduling, counsellor fit, session content — and what would have helped. If their recommendation likelihood was low, uncover the root concern rather than accepting a surface answer.

How it compares
We reviewed the closest templates from other survey tools. Here’s what they do well — and where this template goes further.
Why this template
- Includes a matrix question and opinion-scale ratings on trust, progress, and likelihood to recommend, paired with an AI follow-up interview that asks respondents to explain the story behind their progress and recommendation ratings
- Captures concrete access barriers via a dedicated multiple-choice question on what made sessions hardest to attend in the last 3 months, directly supporting funder reporting on access gaps
- Offers an open long-text question inviting anything the structured questions missed, plus demographic and format-preference questions for segmentation
- Every AI-generated follow-up prompt is transparent and viewable, and responses are automatically scored for quality and rolled into an auto-generated report — no manual coding of open-ended answers required
QuestionPro
Non Profit Counselor Survey Questions + Sample Questionnaire TemplateThis is a directly comparable template covering counselling client feedback for non-profits, with sample questions on counselor interaction and service quality. It reads as a static questionnaire reference rather than a platform showcasing adaptive follow-up interviewing. Question sets appear to rely on fixed-choice and rating items without any voice-based or conversational component.
What it does well
- Purpose-built for non-profit counseling feedback, so question wording is domain-relevant
- Backed by a large, established survey platform with broad template library and distribution tools
- Provides a ready sample questionnaire that can be adapted quickly
Where it falls short
- No adaptive AI follow-up interview to probe the reasoning behind a rating — respondents can't be asked to elaborate in the moment
- No voice AI interview option for clients who prefer speaking over typing
- No indication of automated per-response quality scoring or transparent AI prompt methodology
