I too support video taping and audio taping therapy sessions. in my own therapy it was the audio and video recordings that help confirm my diagnosis of DID and it has helped in so many ways over the years. One big thing is that I can see how much I have changed and progressed over the years.

In my sessions with my clients at the crisis center we audio and video record. This helps a lot when we have to go to court with our clients. not only does it show first hand how we have worked with the client but also shows first hand to the court the physical and emotional damages of the abuse committed on our clients and it also shows our clients things like even though they may feel like they are getting no where and they feel things are hopeless, they are making progress and have come a long way from that first session.

We also use audio and video recording at the hospital mental health Unit, we do so for many reasons including those I already stated above.

Thanks for this!
