During your intake interview, your client tells you that she has had lower back pain and she points to her lower left back area. In what section of the S.O.A.P. notes would this go?

S stands for "subjective", what your client tells you, like their chief complaint. Observations by the therapist would be placed in the Objective section. Any assessment techniques used by therapist and the results would be put in the Assessment section. Plan is what the therapist will do to treat the client, including the initial treatment and follow-up treatment.
