Who this template is for
Therapy Client Intake Form is built for teams with a niche process that generic forms don't cover who need to capture reproducible detail on first contact.
- Teams with a niche process that generic forms don't cover working in healthcare, legal & specialized.
- Teams who need to capture reproducible detail on first contact without writing code or paying for a custom build.
- Anyone replacing requests that need three replies before work can start with one structured record per enquiry.
- Respondents are the specific group this workflow serves — the form asks them 19 questions across 4 screens.
Why this form is useful
It removes the cost of requests that need three replies before work can start and turns each submission into a record your team can act on immediately.
- 8 questions are required, so submissions arrive complete instead of needing a follow-up email.
- It collects a verified email address so replies and confirmations land.
- It captures a phone number for urgent follow-up.
- It allows multiple selections without free text.
- Conditional logic hides 6 questions until they are relevant — shorter forms convert better than long ones.
- Splitting the form across 4 pages keeps each screen short and shows respondents how much is left.
- Every response is stored, searchable and exportable, so nothing depends on one person's inbox.

Logic and conditions blueprint
Exactly how this form behaves as it is answered — 6 conditional rules ship with it.
- Features advanced show logic: if “Client age” is Under 18, the form dynamically exposes “Guardian name and relationship”. Otherwise that question never appears.
- Features conditional hiding: if “Client age” is Under 18, “Client consent to treatment” is removed from the form and is never submitted.
- Features conditional validation: if “Client age” is Under 18, “Guardian signature” becomes mandatory before the form can be sent.
- Features advanced show logic: if “Presenting concern” is Grief or loss, the form dynamically exposes “Who or what have you lost?”. Otherwise that question never appears.
- Features advanced show logic: if “Presenting concern” is Anxiety or stress, the form dynamically exposes “What tends to trigger your anxiety most?”. Otherwise that question never appears.
- Features advanced show logic: if “Are you currently taking any medication?” is Yes, the form dynamically exposes “List medication, dosage and prescribing provider”. Otherwise that question never appears.
- All 6 rules are editable in the Logic tab, and the built-in checker warns about rules that contradict each other.

Questions about this shared form
Is this suitable for crisis intake?
No — this is a general pre-session intake form. Clients in crisis should be directed to a phone line or emergency service, not a web form.
What happens if a client under 18 fills this out alone?
The consent section is designed to require a guardian's signature instead of the client's, so the form itself won't be treated as valid consent without it.
Can I add more presenting-concern branches?
Yes — the branching pattern here (concern selected → one matching follow-up question) can be extended to other concerns as needed.
Should I store the medication details separately from general notes?
Yes, keep clinical details like medication in the same secure record as the rest of the client's health information, per your practice's confidentiality policy.
