DAP Note Example

Worried About Clients' Privacy

Client is a therapist with anxiety about AI note-taking and scribe tools.

Generated DAP Note:

Quill generated this note with AI from the summary that was provided. The therapist can then copy-and-paste the note into their current EHR platform.

Data:
Session took place in the therapist's office at 12:00 PM. Client presented as a fellow therapist and appeared visibly stressed and anxious. Client expressed significant concern about the proliferation of AI note-taking and scribe tools, particularly the risks of recording and storing sensitive client information. Client stated, "Say I have a client, for example Jane Doe, who tells me super personal things. What happens when her super personal data is leaked?" Client conveyed a strong sense of responsibility for safeguarding client confidentiality and expressed fear of potential data breaches. Client also inquired if the therapist was recording sessions and was reassured that no recordings were being made.

Assessment:
Client is experiencing heightened anxiety related to professional concerns about the use of AI tools in therapy and the potential risks to client confidentiality. This anxiety appears to align with broader themes of responsibility and fear of harm to clients, which may contribute to her overall stress levels. Client was receptive to discussing strategies for setting boundaries and exploring privacy policies to address these concerns.

Plan:
Client will draft personal boundaries regarding the use of technology in her practice and create a list of questions to evaluate AI tools. Client will also review privacy policies of platforms she is curious about to assess their security measures. The next session is scheduled in two weeks at the same time, where these topics will be revisited, and further work on managing anxiety and its impact will continue.

Client Session Summary:

Here's the summary of this client session. Remember, Quill does not record the client session. A therapist would provide a summary (like the one below) after the session is over, and then Quill would generate a note similar to the one above.

So, I met with my client, she's a fellow therapist... in my office today at noon. And honestly, the whole session was her just unloading about how stressed and anxious she is over all these AI note-taking and scribe tools popping up, and seeing some of her colleagues recording their sessions, despite the huge risks. She kept saying how it just doesn't sit right with her that they're recording and storing all this super sensitive stuff. She's convinced it's only a matter of time before there's a big breach. At one point she goes quote "Say I have a client, for example Jane Doe, who tells me super personal things. What happens when her super personal data is leaked?" unquote, and, yeah, I mean... if Jane Doe's information got out like that, it'd be devastating... both for Jane personally and for her as a therapist. You could tell this is weighing heavy on her, like she's carrying the responsibility of keeping every client's secrets locked down. I get it, if you googled for Jane, you might find her deepest darkest secrets that she had trusted her, I mean like her therapist, with.

I told her for next time, maybe just jot down some boundaries for herself. Like, where she draws the line with tech in her practice. Umm. And maybe a list of questions she'd want answered before even thinking about an AI tool. She's also gonna poke around at some privacy policies for any platforms she's curious about, just to see if they're actually airtight. We'll go over all that when we meet again in two weeks, same time. Lots more to work on with anxiety and how to not let it overwhelm her. Oh, and she also asked if I was recording our sessions, which obviously I assured her I am not. But I'm glad she felt comfortable asking about a topic that worries her so much.
