I certainly wouldn’t sign that, and I’ve never encountered it myself..

Yes, party affiliation and/or having enough money (or your family having enough money) that you can buy off people in power. I forget who, but someone recently got pardoned because their mother paid to attend a million-dollar-a-plate dinner or something like that.
And I wouldn't sign a treatment plan before speaking to the provider, no. I've actually never signed a formal treatment plan with any of my therapists. (I mean, I signed a consent to treatment, but that's different, and a legal thing.)
Is it some really specific sort of therapy like DBT? (Even then, I'd balk at it.) Or just a regular therapist?
