We, Members of the CSOC Youth Task Force, have come up with therapy forms that we think will help make therapy sessions go a lot smoother. We first created these forms so that youth would have a voice in choosing their therapist because as youth, we don't have any say-so in whom we would like our therapist to be.
Our therapy forms consist of two pages. One page is for the youth to fill out before they are assigned a therapist. This form was meant for youth to choose the type of therapist they would like, the ethnicity they would feel comfortable with and where a good place would be to have sessions.
The second form also is for the youth. This form is used before the session starts. The form is like an icebreaker for the patient. It asks youth whether they are hungry or not and what type of mood they are in. This form was created to start out a friendly dialogue between the patient and the therapist.
We, the CSOC Youth Task Force, believe that our forms will help better the system and make it more youth friendly.
