What happens during an intake? a. The therapist gathers specific information to address the client's immediate needs such as the presenting problem, the client's support system, and insurance status. The therapist informs the client about confidentiality, fees, and what to expect in a therapy session. b. The therapist guides what happens in the therapy session and designs a detailed approach to resolving each member's presenting problem. c. The therapist meets with a couple to help them see how their individual backgrounds, beliefs, and actions are affecting their relationship. d. The therapist examines and discusses with the family the boundaries and structure of the family: For example, who makes the rules, who sleeps in the bed with whom, and how decisions are made.

The intake process is a fundamental part of initiating therapy. It involves the therapist collecting necessary information about the client, explaining how therapy sessions work, and providing necessary information about confidentiality, fees, etc.

Compare each scenario to the understanding of an intake process from step 1. a. In this scenario, specific information is collected about the client's current needs, and essential information is given about confidentiality, fees, and expectations. This aligns with the intake process. b. In this scenario, the therapist is leading a therapy session and formulating a detailed plan to resolve individual issues. This describes a therapy session rather than an intake.c. In this scenario, the session revolves around revealing how individual backgrounds and actions affect a couple's relationship. This seems more like a couple's therapy session than an intake.d. In this scenario, the therapist is investigating and discussing the family structure and boundaries. This seems more like a family therapy session than an intake.

Option a accurately describes the intake process. The therapist gathers necessary information about the client's immediate needs, informs the client about the therapy process, confidentiality, and fees, which aligns with the understanding of the intake process from step 1.
