Interventions, therapies, and medications used (if any) Client's response to treatment and any outcomes or changes. Recommendations for future treatment.
The therapist can simply be subpoenaed to testify at a deposition, hearing, or trial, and the therapist's records can be subpoenaed as well. Since the patient wants the information, the protective psychotherapist-patient privilege is inapplicable.
