Your patients have a lot on their minds, which makes it easy to forget things. As a result, they may miss their sessions, costing you time and money. Unfortunately, missed therapy appointments are normally not on purpose. People simply forget. As a therapist and counselor, you create a safe and welcoming environment for your clients to come and work through what is on their minds. Now you can take that patient experience further with customizable therapy appointment reminder templates that show your patients that their time with you is important.
