I like that statement! Letting them take ownership of their information... One of my favorite intake questions is, "What do you think it is?" I think most people have very good intuition, and often times medical professionals never bother to ask the patient (who has the greatest understanding of their body) what their opinion is. If nothing else this makes the client feel involved in the process and heard, and if they're nowhere close to my DDx it does nothing for me to discard the information
