Abstract
Wellโimplemented informed consent procedures demonstrate psychotherapists' respect for clients' right to selfโdetermination and can initiate meaningful contributions to treatment through enhancing mutual trust, building rapport, and facilitating a sense of ownership. This article details key components of informed consent to psychotherapy by placing them within realโworld psychotherapy scenarios. We provide information on clientโtherapist discussions of the nature and course of therapy, fees and payment policies, the involvement of third parties, confidentiality policies, and new and untested treatments. In addition, this article addresses informed consent procedures for individuals with impaired cognitive capacities and under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) regulations. ยฉ 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
