Informed Consent for Psychotherapy

Licensed Professional Counselor: Kristel L. Mabie, LPC, NCC

License Number: 2006009844

Purpose of Informed Consent

This document outlines important information about psychotherapy services provided at KLM Counseling & Healing Practices.

It is intended to help you make an informed decision about participating in counseling, in accordance with ACA and APA ethical standards.

Please read carefully and ask any questions you may have.

Nature of Psychotherapy

Psychotherapy involves exploring thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and experiences to improve mental health and overall well‑being.

Therapy may include discussing difficult topics, learning coping skills, processing past experiences, and identifying patterns.

You and your therapist will work collaboratively to determine goals and the pace of treatment.

Potential Risks and Benefits

Potential benefits include improved emotional health, increased coping skills, better relationships, and enhanced self-awareness.

The outcome depends largely on the client’s willingness to participate and engage in the therapeutic process, which may sometimes result in discomfort. Remembering unpleasant events and becoming aware of feelings attached to those events can bring on intense feelings of anger, depression, anxiety, etc. There are no miracle cures. The therapist cannot promise that a client’s circumstances will change. The therapist can promise to provide support, understanding, care and concern and help the client clarify what they want for themselves.
