I think the protocol for therapists who are not MD's is to use the term "client". I think PhDs and PsyDs use patient more than an LPC or social worker, but I think it should be reserved for MDs, unless it's in a hospital or treatment center. That's just my take on it though and what I've been taught so far. I don't think there are actual rules around this.
