Description

The Psych form 2, known as the Agreement for Psychotherapy Services, serves as a contract between the therapist and the patient, outlining the terms and conditions of therapy. Key features of the form include a detailed fee structure where patients are responsible for payment at the end of each session, as well as a clear cancellation and appointment policy that charges for no-shows unless notified 24 hours in advance. The form emphasizes confidentiality, detailing circumstances under which patient information may be disclosed, thereby ensuring clients' trust. It also establishes a work agreement where the patient commits to actively engage in the psychotherapy process. Patients must be at least 18 years old and acknowledge the risks involved in therapy, releasing the therapist from liability. Additionally, the form specifies arbitrative resolution for disputes and includes clauses on modification, assignment of rights, and compliance with laws. This form is particularly useful for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants involved in mental health law, as it clarifies legal obligations and protects the interests of both therapists and patients.
