  • Consent for Treatment

    Consent that you can be seen by Lake Cook Behavioral Health
  • 1. I hereby consent to receive behavioral health services through Lake Cook Behavioral
    Health as provided by psychotherapists, psychiatrists or other menthal health professionals of Lake-Cook Behavioral Health.


    2. I authorize and request that Lake Cook Behavioral Health and my physician(s) perform assessments, administer treatments and medications, and obtain laboratory evaluations as may be considered advisable in the diagnosis and treatment of my condition.


    3. I realize that no particular outcome/result can be guaranteed as a result of my consent to treatment at lake-Cook Behavioral Health.


    4. I hereby release my psychiatrist, psychologist, social worker, counselor and Lake-Cook
    Behavioral Health Resources and their employees from responsibility for any injury which
    results from my leaving Lake-Cook Behavioral Health services against clinical
    and medical advice.


    5. Your treatment is confidential within the limits prescribed by law. In general, no
    information about your treatment will be released without your written consent. However,
    relevant laws require that your therapist contact others about your safety if you present a
    danger to yourself or to others. If your therapist learns of child abuse or neglect, or if
    ordered by a court.


    In addition, your therapist may consult with other therapists within Lake Cook Behavioral
    Health to improve the quality of your treatment. Your therapist may release
    information about you to an insurance company or managed care company if you are
    using these benefits.


    If you (client) are younger that 12 years of age, your therapist may discuss your treatment with your parent or legal guardian. If you are older than 12 years of age and younger than 18 years of age, your therapist may discuss your treatment with your parent or legal guardian with your consent. If you are engaging in behavior that your therapist believes places you in danger of significantly harming yourself or others, your therapist will help you to discuss these issues with your parents.


    6. I agree that I will provide 24-hour notice to cancel a scheduled appointment. If I do not
    give proper notification, I understand I am responsible for the full session fee (insurance
    cannot be billed for a late cancellation or a failed appointment).


    This consent form has been fully explained to me and I certify that I understand and agree with its contents.
