How to Use Secure Messaging as a TherapyPortal User

Practices who use TherapyNotes may choose use Secure Messaging to communicate with their clients.

In order to receive messages from your practice, you must have an account with your practice's client portal. 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.
