Why Refer Your Patients to Light On Anxiety?
Light On Anxiety's Quick Admit program is designed with busy referring providers in mind. Our goal is to make the hand off between your practice and ours as smooth and seamless as possible by facilitating effective, efficient coordination of care.
There are 3 simple ways you can get your patient set up with treatment at Light On Anxiety:
A Care Manager is available to speak with you about your patient’s mental health needs, review Light On Anxiety’s service offerings and help you to determine if therapy at Light On Anxiety would be a helpful addition to your patient’s care plan. You can connect with a Care Manager via phone (312.508.3645) or email ([email protected]).
Our Quick Admit form is designed to streamline the new patient registration process for referring providers. Please be assured that this referral will be handled in a way that respects your patient’s privacy and complies with HIPAA regulations.
We will reach out directly to your patient within one business day to get them set up with services at Light On Anxiety.
A complimentary meeting with a scheduling associate is the right next step forward for your patient if they are not yet ready to get started with treatment but first want to learn more about our services and/or review their ongoing scheduling requirements. They can schedule an appointment with a scheduling associate or contact us via phone (312.508.3645) or email ([email protected]).
Below are some tips on how to compassionately encourage a patient to obtain mental health services:
By integrating a brief, reliable, well validated mental health screener into each of your patient appointments, you can allow the data to speak for itself. If a patient is scoring in the moderate to high range of a screener for depression or anxiety, you now have an easy segue to a conversation on the benefits of short term, empirically support mental health services.
Recommended Mental Health Screeners To Share With Your Patients
Light On Anxiety has designed a prescription pad to assist you in “prescribing” Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for anxiety and related conditions to your patients.
If you are interested in obtaining customized CBT prescription pads to help facilitate therapy referral conversations with our patients, please contact our Provider Relations team ([email protected]) and we would be happy to assist you.
It is always helpful to point out to a patient experiencing emotional distress that seeking out therapy services is not a sign of weakness but is in fact an act of strength. By obtaining mental health support, you are doing the hard, important work of learning to live your life to the fullest, even with all of the challenge zones and stressors that we must maneuver through and move past.
