Document Summary

Informed consent: involves the right of clients to be informed about their therapy and to make autonomous decisions pertaining to it. Informed consent is a shared decision-making process in which a practitioner provides adequate information so that a potential client can make an informed decision about participating in the professional relationship. One benefit of informed consent is that it increases the chances that clients will become involved, educated, and willing participants in their therapy. Informed consent documentation: is to define boundaries and clarify the nature of the basic counseling relationship between the counselor and the client. Progress notes: are a means of documenting aspects of a client"s treatment and are kept in a client"s clinical record. These notes may be used to document significant issues or concerns related to a client"s treatment (griffin, 2007). Progress notes are behavioral in nature and address what people say and do.
