QUICK ANSWER

How can a cash-pay therapy practice improve intake without overwhelming clinicians?

Reply to every inquiry quickly and warmly, match people to the right clinician with a short consult, confirm the first session with clear expectations, and route anything urgent to your clinical team immediately. A coordinator, not the clinician, should run intake.

• FAQ

Therapy practice questions.

Do coordinators provide any clinical support?

No. They handle intake and scheduling only. Anything urgent is routed to your clinical team immediately, and crisis resources such as 988 are shared.

Can you work with SimplePractice?

Yes. We work alongside SimplePractice, TherapyNotes, Jane and similar systems.

Are you HIPAA compliant?

We sign a BAA, use HIPAA-enabled tools, train every team member and limit access by role.

Is this only for cash-pay practices?

We focus on cash-pay and out-of-network practices, where intake speed matters most.

How do we start?

With a free audit of how your practice responds to a new inquiry.
