Why we have a Waitlist
There are so many people looking for mental health services, and we do have a waitlist for appointments. We know this is frustrating, but we want you to know that at Wild Spirit we want to get you the care you need as quickly as possible. At WSC we limit the number of clients on our providers schedules to ensure each person receives the attention and care they deserve. Unfortunately, this leads to a waitlist. At WSC we strive to provide consistent care and honor the time of all our clients and clinicians, If a client misses three scheduled appointments without notice we will place them back on our waitlist to allow space for others in need of services. However, cancellations do not count as missed appointments if you call and explain your reason for missing. We value your healing journey, but we are unable to hold a spot on the schedule if appointments are repeatedly unattended without communication. Staying Connected: While you are waiting please do not hesitate to call and check in. If you are in a mental health crisis or need help do not hesitate to reach out. When a slot opens up due to a patient completing treatment or no longer needing care, we’ll reach out to offer you that appointment.
We have Immediate BHIS Availablity!
- Do you need extra support for your childs behaviors? Are you willing to let the provider come into your home? BHIS may be for you and your family! We can set up assessments, meet the provider, schedule in-home and school appointments. Monthly check ins with the Therapist! In order to qualify for BHIS you must have State Insurance. If you want more information or to schedule contact the office at 641-351-4003.
