“…CD refers to the practice of using EHRs to deliberately complete progress notes jointly with clients during psychotherapeutic encounters (Stanhope, Ingoglia, Schmelter, & Marcus, 2013). CD is framed as a mechanism to promote a client-centered approach to care (DiCarlo & Garcia, 2016); by deliberately including clients in the documentation process, it is expected that clients are given the opportunity to provide input about their treatment progress, thereby facilitating a mutual understanding of important psychotherapeutic issues and goals. In doing so, it is also anticipated that CD will enhance the therapeutic alliance by increasing client engagement and participation in treatment (Hirsch, 2012; Schmelter, 2012).…”
