Is it a waste of session time/client's money for a therapist to do the intake verbally during the session instead of giving the client a form to complete beforehand?
Some of those intake forms can be time consuming to fill out, especially if the therapist is reading everything out verbally and considering that the session is only 50 minutes to begin with.
I just had a therapist tell me that they do their intake in session. I don't know if I like that. That's a lot of dollars per minute that I'm going to be paying just to have the therapist confirm my zip code and stuff like that.
