I would love to see the "name" line on the intake paperwork changed to "legal name" and have "preferred name" option updated to something more along the lines of "name used." Working with clients who are transgender, gender nonconforming, or who have a trauma history connected with their legal name, it is not a matter of preference, and I want my intake paperwork to make that clear right out of the gate.
