Prior to your initial session, you are required to review and sign a Client Registration Form along with an Informed Consent and Confidentiality Agreement. These documents are vital for building a secure, clear, and ethical framework for your therapeutic journey.
The registration document allows the therapist to gather necessary details regarding your health background and your goals for seeking therapy, ensuring the support you receive is custom-fit to your unique needs.
Within the consent and confidentiality agreement, you will find details on the therapeutic process, your legal rights, and the rigorous measures taken to protect your personal data. It also outlines specific legal exceptions where confidentiality might be limited, explains record management, and offers you a choice concerning the use of AI tools for session transcription.
Completing these forms is a core part of the informed consent process. Beyond simple paperwork, they ensure you feel fully informed about our policies, understand how your privacy is guarded, and have the chance to address any questions or opt out of specific procedures before we begin.
Ensuring your privacy and respecting your autonomy to make informed decisions is the cornerstone of the relationship at Phoenix Psychotherapy.
