Sample Consent Forms

Editable Templates for Clinicians

This download includes a complete set of intake paperwork and informed consent forms adapted from documents I use in my own private practice. These forms are designed to balance legal clarity, ethical transparency, and client readability, without unnecessary jargon or intimidation.

They are especially well-suited for clinicians who want forms that feel professional and thorough, but still human.

What’s included

• Client informed consent for therapy

• Policies related to fees, cancellations, communication, and confidentiality

• Privacy policies

• Consent for telehealth services

• Telehealth location and emergency verification form

• Credit card authorization form

• Consent for electronic communication

• Psychological evaluation informed consent, pre-employment suitability evaluation

All documents are editable, so you can customize them to reflect your state laws, license type, practice policies, and clinical style. All documents also include clear, client-facing language designed to reduce confusion and follow-up questions

Who this is for

• New clinicians opening a private practice

• Clinicians revising outdated or overly complex paperwork

• Practices looking for a solid starting point rather than drafting forms from scratch

Important note

These templates are provided for educational and practical support and are not legal advice. Clinicians are responsible for reviewing and modifying forms to ensure compliance with their state laws, licensing board requirements, and practice policies.
