When should therapists update their Psychology Today profile?

Therapists should proactively update their Psychology Today profile in several key situations. First, when availability changes (such as no longer accepting new clients), it's crucial to clearly specify this at the top of the profile to prevent potential client frustration. Second, any changes to fee structure or accepted insurance plans should be promptly updated to maintain accuracy. Finally, therapists pivoting their specialty or refining their target client focus should take time to revise their profile accordingly. These updates ensure prospective clients receive current information, making the connection process smoother and more effective for both parties.
