Yeah, if they are seeing a LICENSED therapist, they should have had a DA done. I don't know if laws vary by state (or country?) or ethical regulations being standardized, but at my organization, it would not be possible to see one of our therapists for regular therapy without a DA. And DAs have to be done every year.

The only exception would be if it's something like a family/group/couples counseling, or if it's only temporary (like if you are using a company's benefits to get like 6 free therapy sessions). Private one-on-one, regular therapy though? It really stumps me that this therapist could get away without doing an assessment.

Unless of course, the therapist did the assessment and just didn't determine there was any appropriate diagnosis. Or maybe the individual was diagnosed, but is choosing not to share it with OP because it's personal/embarrassing.

DA

Laws are definitely different by area. Some don't require one at all.
