Is there a way to add the clinician signature to consent forms that are also signed by patient

In order for our informed consents to be legal documents, I thought they needed signatures from patient as well as clinicians? Is there a way to add clinician signature to the esigned consent forms in Simple Practice?

    Agree--this is actually a legal and licensing requirement in the state of Arizona. Please add asap as the current workaround takes way too long and too many steps.

    I’m a therapist here in the state of Arizona. I would like to see that both the clinician and the client can sign consent forms.

    I figured out a work around! Create an assessment form that is called Informed Consent with your informed consent verbiage and add one for each client, sign and send to client for their signature!

    Heather, how are you able to get the client signature on an Assessment? I tried that but was unable to find a way to get client signature... Perhaps I missed something.
