It is the LAW that you must fill out HIPAA paperwork regarding your privacy. The T should also be giving you Informed Consent paperwork to sign.

If they do not offer this paperwork it is against the law and the ethics of the APA or other governing professional bodies. I would consider it a big RED FLAG if you don't get paperwork to fill out.

If you don't.... ask for it!

I learned the hard way.

Totally agree with this. HIPAA laws are very strict and to not fill these out is a violation. They should also have paperwork to fill out for any communication they have with another party regarding you.
