AI Appointment Receptionist for Therapists
Therapists are in sessions most of the day, and new clients often call after hours. An AI receptionist answers those calls and texts, explains the session types you offer with their lengths and fees, shares which therapists focus on which areas, checks availability, and books the consultation. Clinical questions and anyone in crisis should be directed to you or emergency services.
An AI receptionist for therapists & counselors — a voice agent that answers calls and texts and books appointments through natural conversation — lists your services, gives service details, shares staff and business information, and checks live availability before booking. Your team focuses on clients, not the phone. Powered by virtual assistant technology.
