I guess if she needed them I shouldn’t be judging. I still find it a bit weird to do on camera in front of a client. Then again she also eats cottage cheese during our sessions too.

Yes, definitely. Downright unprofessional too.

Yes, something's not right.
Stupid therapist I was given at Johns Hopkins told me she got depressed after drinking alcohol. Didn't stay with that jerk very long...

I wouldn't be offended if mine did...

After all, therapists are human too.

They may have a medical condition that requires dosing and/or eating at specific times...

Thanks for this!

I agree with @Pflowers

There's nothing wrong to take medication or to eat if she needs
Maybe she doesn't have a break to eat, so she eats during sessions
There are some medications you take it when you need no matter the hour
It's better that she takes her medication if she needs than feel bad later because she didn't take it

It’s not like therapy sessions last all day though. She could take her meds before the session or after and it wouldn’t affect timing even if that were the case. If it were a PRN then a little communication goes a long way. There’s a difference between casually whipping out your meds and “I’m sorry to do this mid session, but I need to take this medication right now and I really can’t put it off.”
