📄 Therapists & Medical Professionals: Are You Documenting with Client Safety in Mind?
In this episode of TwoX Labs Podcast, Dr. Erika Miley sits down with Cairn Yakey, MA to discuss a critical yet often overlooked aspect of care—how we document our clients' information and the potential risks it carries.
For trans individuals, LGBTQIA2S+ clients, immigrants, neurodivergent individuals, and other marginalized populations, traditional documentation practices can create barriers, increase exposure to harm, or even put them at legal risk. This conversation explores how therapists and healthcare providers can rethink their approach to clinical and medical documentation to ensure safety, protect access to care, and minimize harm.
💡 What You’ll Learn in This Episode: ✅ Why traditional documentation methods can be risky for marginalized communities ✅ How coded language can be used to protect rather than out clients ✅ Strategies for writing therapy and medical notes with safety and advocacy in mind ✅ How to reframe diagnosis, travel letters, and medical necessity to avoid unnecessary risks
🎧 Whether you're a therapist, social worker, medical provider, or advocate, this episode is essential for ensuring your documentation aligns with client protection and well-being.
