Request and Manage Appointments as a TherapyPortal User
While some practices do not allow online scheduling, many TherapyNotes practices use TherapyPortal to allow their clients to conveniently request and manage appointments.
If your practice uses TherapyPortal, they will inform you how to access the portal. In many cases, they will send you an email invitation to join the portal, or they may include a link to the portal on the practice's website.
If you are unsure how to access the portal, please talk to the staff at your practice.
Each practice uses TherapyPortal differently, so be aware that your practice may choose not to take advantage of all portal features.
Request Appointments
Many practices require clients to be logged in to the portal in order to request appointments.
Request an appointment on TherapyPortal with an existing portal account:
- Log in to your practice's portal.
- Click the Request Appointment button.
- From the Service dropdown, select whether you are scheduling a Therapy appointment or a Medication Management appointment, if applicable. New clients may only schedule Therapy and Medication Management Intakes, while existing clients may only schedule Therapy and Medication Management Sessions.
- If your practice has multiple locations, select your preferred location from the Location dropdown.
- From the Clinician dropdown, select your preferred clinician or search for Any Available Clinician.
- Click the View Available Times button.
- Select your preferred appointment time.
- Review your appointment request details and click the Submit Request button
You will receive an email confirmation once your appointment request is approve by the practice. If your request is declined, you will be contacted by the practice directly to reschedule. Declined appointment requests will not appear in your appointment list.
Request an appointment on TherapyPortal without a portal account:
If your practice allows clients to request appointments without creating a portal account or logging in, you may follow these instructions to request an appointment without logging in. Please note that some practices may restrict appointment requests to logged-in users only.
