The messaging feature brings safe, secure, HIPAA-compliant communication and file-sharing to Grow Therapy.
Before you begin
Please note the following before using the messaging feature:
You and your clients can share messages and files within your Grow Therapy accounts. All communication is encrypted and HIPAA-compliant.
You and your clients are notified about new messages in Grow Therapy and via email, so there's no need to worry about missing replies.
The messaging tool is not intended for emergency or crisis communication. Instead, it is intended for between-session communication, including:
Appointment confirmations or change requests
Progress updates, feedback, insights, and check-ins
Reminders for an upcoming appointment, such as the session topics
Secure document transfers, such as questionnaires, worksheets, etc.
Finally, select the Send button when the message is complete.
Clients needing to discuss billing, insurance, and other non-clinical issues should still contact support.
With this information in mind, there are two ways to contact clients via secure messaging, and both are covered below.
