Consult Setup

PBHS Support can create a separate user in your account, which only has access to the Consult Mode section of your MySecurePractice Account.

Simply provide a new email address not being used in mysecurepractice to PBHS Support ([e-mail] or 888-840-0739). Our support team will setup the user requested with Consult Mode Access Only!

PBHS can also modify an existing email user already registered in your account (note: this will remove all other admin access from this user), or you can provide a new email address to create the Consult Mode user as stated above.

Once you have your user Consult Mode login, you can login directly into: https://mysecurepractice.com from any supported platform/browser.  Consult Mode will open directly!

While in a patient consultation, this Consult Mode login can be used to access Consult Mode quickly.  This login will only allow you to access your Silent Partner Playlists, giving you the ability to confidently leave a tablet/computer or device with the patient (without any concerns about them accessing other secure portions of your MySecurePractice account).

Please email or call PBHS with a request to add a Consult Mode User to our Support Department ([e-mail] or 888-840-0739).
