A waitlist is a tool used by therapists when their schedules are completely full.
Therapists will reach out to people on their waitlist when they have an opening in their schedule, or when a current client cancels an appointment.
Sometimes this waitlist can be months long, so if you’re in crisis, call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-275-8255 to get help immediately.
Mental Health Match can help you find someone who is taking new clients.
