What your customers are trying to do

People seeking mental health support, often for the first time want to book a session.

A psychology practice website usually has to handle session booking with telehealth options, secure intake before the first session and guides to starting therapy.

Session booking with telehealth options: booking online is easier for people who find phone calls hard. Let clients choose in-person or telehealth and the psychologist whose areas of practice fit.

Secure intake before the first session: intake details help match clients to the right psychologist. Collect referral details and contact preferences, and keep clinical detail for the session.

Guides to starting therapy: plain information about referrals and costs reduces barriers to booking. Explain how referrals and rebates work, linking to official sources.
