Professional Visibility

Let Us Help You Promote Your Qualifications

Develop an engaging professional presence.

If you are accepting new patients or clients, your National Register credential offers you the opportunity to be listed on our consumer-referral website, FindaPsychologist.org. Using this resource, potential patients or clients can connect with a psychologist who meets National Register standards: you! Make your profile stand out by ensuring that it’s complete and that you have a professional photo displayed. Follow these recommendations for updating your member account.

Certain categories are used as search filters (denoted with an asterisk [*]) to help potential patients find your profile. Potential patients will learn more about your practice based on information you add to each category.

Step 1: Review Your Contact Information

Update your phone and address information.
- The “Office Phone” field is what will display on your public profile (required).
- “Office Address” and “Alternate Office Address” will display. Make sure to include an office address*, but it is optional to publicly display the address.
The “Email” field is what will be used for the FindaPsychologist.org profile contact form.

Step 2: Evaluate Your FindaPsychologist.org Listing

We recommend that you display a professional photo to personalize your profile. This can be the same professional photo you would use on another professional website. Please upload your photo at 250×250 (square).
Select applicable areas of expertise.*
Select applicable treatment modalities.*
Update or add your practice website URL.
Specify whether or not you are currently accepting new patients.*
As with all information in this section of your account, you can update this information at any time.
Update or add insurance information*:
- Check “I do not accept insurance” OR
- List accepted insurance plans (tip: separate each insurance plan with a semicolon [;])
Specify whether or not you offer telepsychology.
Select applicable age ranges served.*
If applicable, select additional languages spoken other than English.*
If you’ve upgraded to an expanded profile, the following fields will display on your public profile: practice description, office policies, specialty credentials, other memberships/affiliations, hospital privileges, and professional social media accounts. Make sure to fill out this information to provide consumers with a comprehensive look at your qualifications.

Step 3: Review the Additional Opt In/Out Items

If you are not currently accepting new patients or clients, please check the “Hide My Listing or No New Patients” checkbox to ensure that consumers can more easily find psychologists who are currently accepting referrals. You can update this when you begin accepting new patients.
Please note that for your profile to display on FindaPsychologist.org, you must display an office phone number so that potential patients can contact your office with questions and to schedule an appointment.
Keep “Email Connection to Contact Form” enabled so that potential patients can submit questions to you via a contact form on your profile.

Questions About Your FindaPsychologist.org Listing

FindaPsychologist.org, the National Register’s referral website, provides consumers with educational resources, self-help strategies, and a searchable database of credentialed psychologists—including you! This wonderful resource encourages potential patients to review your profile details and reach out to set up an appointment. It’s also a great tool for you if you are looking for a referral to another health service psychologist.

Findapsychologist.org is intended to help potential patients find a psychologist for mental health support. It is standard practice to publicly display at least one office location and phone number. Without a phone number displayed on your findapsychologist.org profile, a potential patient cannot call your office with questions about your expertise, insurance coverage, or to set up an appointment. We encourage potential patients to reach out to several psychologists to find the best fit before beginning treatment. For these reasons, a public (office) phone number is required for your profile to display on findapsychologist.org.

No. Findapsychologist.org is intended to help potential patients find a psychologist for mental health support. If you are not currently accepting new patients or clients but remain on this site, this could be a disservice to those looking for help. If you are not currently accepting new patients, please specify this in your Registrant account. You can update this again any time your status changes. Please note that findapsychologist.org is not a professional verification database. Professional verifications are a separate benefit of the National Register.

You can update the additional fields that come with your upgraded profile by editing your profile in your Registrant account.
