Psychology and counselling

AI receptionist for psychology practices in Australia.

Psychologists are in session for most of the day, and new clients often find it hard to make that first call at all.

  • Warm, simple new client intake
  • Sessions booked with the right practitioner
  • Crisis lines given, never clinical talk

The difference

The hardest first call, answered kindly.

Many people only ring a psychologist once. When nobody answers, they may not try again.

Without RingOut

  • First-time callers reach voicemail during sessions
  • People give up after one unanswered call
  • Referral and fee questions wait for a call back
  • Waitlist enquiries are scattered across notes
  • After-hours callers hear nothing helpful

With RingOut

  • First-time callers greeted warmly every time
  • Intake taken while the caller is ready
  • Referral and fee questions answered from your notes
  • Waitlist additions recorded in one place
  • After-hours callers given crisis lines and next steps
Quick answer

What is an AI receptionist for psychology practices?

An AI receptionist for psychology practices is software that answers the practice phone, takes new client intake details and books sessions with the right psychologist or counsellor. It explains fees and referral options without any clinical discussion.

Intake stays practical: name, contact details, referral type and availability. Anything personal is left for the first session.

How calls are handled

Practice calls handled with warmth and clear limits.

Miya takes intake, books and explains fees. Any sign of crisis gets crisis lines first.

Transferring a caller live to a practitioner is not part of the product yet. Intake and waitlist details reach your dashboard once each call is complete.

Real call examples

Three practice calls, handled gently.

A GP-referred new client, a session booking and a caller in distress.

Saturday 10:40 pmCrisis

A caller in distress

Someone calls the practice late at night, upset.

Read the call

Caller: I do not know what to do. I feel really unsafe tonight.

Miya: Thank you for reaching out. If you are not safe right now, call 000. Lifeline is there any time on 13 11 14.

Caller: Okay.

Miya: The practice will hear that you rang, so someone can check in with you.

Example calls written to show Miya's tone and limits.

Client trust

Strict limits for psychology calls.

Miya handles intake and bookings. Every clinical conversation happens with your practitioners.

Any caller who sounds unsafe or in crisis is given 000 for immediate danger. Lifeline (13 11 14) is offered too, and the practice is notified of the call.

No clinical conversation

Miya never discusses symptoms, history or reasons for seeking help, and never assesses risk.

Fees as written

Session fees and rebate information are explained only in your words.

Honest about being AI

Miya gently explains that she is artificial intelligence, and anyone can ask a practitioner to ring back.

Kept in Sydney

Intake notes and any recordings are stored in Sydney.

Live audio through US services

Speech is processed by US providers while the call happens and none of it is kept.

Sensitive information

Mental health details are sensitive health information under the Privacy Act, so intake is kept to the minimum.

FAQ

AI receptionist for psychology practice FAQs.

What does an AI receptionist for psychology practices do?

Miya answers the practice phone while your psychologists and counsellors are in session, takes simple intake details and the referral type, books sessions with the right practitioner, explains fees and referral options from your notes and gives crisis lines whenever a caller needs them.

Will it ask callers about their mental health?

No. Intake is limited to name, contact details, referral type, practitioner preference and availability. Miya never asks why someone is seeking help, never discusses symptoms and never assesses risk. Those conversations belong in sessions with your practitioners. This keeps the first phone contact simple for someone who may be anxious about calling.

What happens if a caller is in crisis?

Miya stops any booking discussion and gives 000 for immediate danger and Lifeline on 13 11 14, which is available any time. She then lets the practice know the person called so your team can follow up under your own procedures.

Can it explain Medicare rebates and referrals?

From your wording only. Miya can explain your session fees, how a Mental Health Treatment Plan from a GP works with Medicare rebates, and your NDIS or EAP arrangements. Eligibility and gap questions are passed to your team to confirm.

Can it link with our practice management system?

Not yet. Sessions are kept in Google Calendar or Calendly for practices that use them, and RingOut records a minimal note of each call, ready for your team to enter into the practice system. Your team decides what, if anything, goes into the clinical record.

How much does an AI receptionist for psychology practice cost?

Solo practitioners usually start on Starter, $49 monthly with 60 minutes. Group practices tend to choose Growth at $149, which covers 250 minutes and adds call recordings. Prices exclude GST. There is no setup fee, and the plan can be stopped at any time.

Stay with your clients. Miya answers kindly.
