AI Receptionist for Therapists Sarah 24/7 — books sessions and handles intake
You’re in session six hours a day. That’s when new clients call. Sarah answers when you can’t — gently gathering what a new client wants to share, offering consultation times, and handling reschedules — so reaching out never means reaching voicemail.

The calls you’re losing
Therapy & Mental Health: the phone problem
That call took courage
A first call to a therapist often takes weeks to make. When it lands in voicemail, many people don’t try again — with you or with anyone. A kind live voice matters.
Sessions can’t be interrupted
Your hours with clients are exactly the hours the phone rings. Sarah covers every call during sessions and after hours, and interrupts you only by the rules you set.
Reschedules and no-shows
An empty session hour is revenue gone and a client drifting. Sarah handles cancellation calls the moment they come in and offers the next opening before the caller hangs up.
Three real calls · nothing staged
Hear Sarah on the phone
Real recorded conversations with US customers — the word-by-word transcript of each one is on the home page. Names, numbers and the client's business name are beeped out — everything else is exactly as it happened.
Qualifying the job on the call
A rental property with a leaking fridge. Sarah works out what is actually happening before anyone is dispatched.
An honest answer, not a sales pitch
The caller wants a part, not a technician. Sarah checks, says plainly that we do not sell parts, and offers what she can.

CallerHi — I’m looking for a therapist. I’ve never done this before.
SarahI’m glad you called — that first step is the hard one. I can help you set up an initial appointment. Are you looking for someone for yourself?
CallerYes. Ideally evenings — I work until five.
SarahThat’s doable. There’s a 6 PM opening on Tuesday for a first session — would that work? I’ll only need your first name and a phone number to hold it.

Good to know
The call a therapy practice cannot afford to miss
A new client rarely calls twice. They call once, often after working up to it, and if the phone rings out while you are in session that particular decision usually does not survive to a second attempt. This is the call an AI receptionist for therapy clinics exists to catch. Sarah answers it: takes the intake in a calm, unhurried tone, books the first session into your calendar, and passes you the details before the day ends.
She also does the unglamorous work that keeps a caseload full — confirming and moving sessions, working the waitlist when a slot opens, and following up on cancellations so the hour does not simply disappear. The tone is set by you during onboarding, and it is deliberately quiet: no upselling, no cheerfulness where it does not belong.
FAQ
Therapy & Mental Health questions
How does Sarah handle a distressed caller?+–
By your script, and without pretending to be a clinician. She does not counsel, assess or reassure beyond what you approved; if a call meets the criteria you define, she follows your protocol — directing the caller to emergency or crisis services and alerting your team immediately. Getting this boundary right is part of onboarding, not an afterthought.
Can Sarah reduce no-shows?+–
She removes the common causes: the confirmation nobody sent, the reschedule request that went to voicemail, the cancellation that was never filled. Clients can move a session by phone at any hour instead of silently not turning up, and freed slots are offered to your waitlist.
Is client information kept private?+–
Calls are recorded, transcribed and stored in your account with access limited to your team, and we do not sell or share them. We do not claim clinical-grade compliance certification — if your practice requires one, tell us before onboarding so you can decide with the facts in hand.
What if a caller is in crisis?+–
You define the protocol during onboarding. Sarah can immediately provide the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline, your own emergency instructions, or a live transfer to you — delivered calmly, the moment a caller’s words match the signs you specify.
How do you handle privacy and confidentiality?+–
Recording and disclosure settings are configurable, and we review your confidentiality and compliance requirements together during onboarding. Sarah asks only what you tell her to ask, and messages are delivered privately to you — never read into a shared voicemail.
Can Sarah screen for fit?+–
She asks the intake questions you choose — what the caller is seeking help with, scheduling preferences, insurance or self-pay — so you start the first session informed. Callers you can’t serve get a graceful referral message that you write.
I’m a solo practice. Is this affordable?+–
Sarah costs from $350 a month plus 15 cents a minute with no setup fee and no contract. You pay only for minutes she’s actually talking — for a solo practice that’s a handful of short calls a day, not a receptionist’s salary.
