Capture intake basics
Required: name, phone, areas of concern (multi-select: anxiety / depression / couples / trauma / family / etc.), insurance carrier or 'private pay / sliding scale', telehealth vs in-person preference.
Form template · Free consultation
Therapy inquiries are vulnerable — the form needs to feel safe. Capture the basics (areas of concern, insurance, modality preference) without forcing trauma details before the first session.
Every template is free and fully editable in the drag-drop builder — swap fields, colors, and the button label before you publish.
No server, API route, or SDK — your Therapist Contact Form posts straight to one endpoint.
Every submission is emailed to you and saved to a searchable dashboard — spam filtered before it reaches you.
It's plain HTML you own — paste the Therapist Contact Form snippet, swap in your access key, and ship.
Copy and ship
HTML by default — the same field set also renders as React, Next.js, PHP, and cURL in your dashboard. Every variant posts to the same /api/submit endpoint. Replace YOUR_ACCESS_KEY with the key from your dashboard; that's the only edit.

</p>How to add it
To add a Therapist Contact Form to your site you need three things: a free splitforms access key, the HTML snippet above, and your key pasted into it. No backend, database, or CAPTCHA library — the form posts to one URL and every submission lands in your inbox and dashboard.
Required: name, phone, areas of concern (multi-select: anxiety / depression / couples / trauma / family / etc.), insurance carrier or 'private pay / sliding scale', telehealth vs in-person preference.
Group practices route by specialty — anxiety to one therapist, couples to another. Solo practices use the field to confirm fit before the consult call. Bad-fit referrals go out same-day with 2-3 colleague names.
Auto-respond with a 15-min phone consult booking link (Calendly / SimplePractice). Most therapists offer a free 15-min 'fit check' call before the paid intake session. Reduces session-1 mismatches by 60-70%.
What's included
Therapy practices run 50-min sessions at $100-250 (private pay) or insurance-billed at $80-150. Many therapists offer sliding-scale fees ($50-100) for limited slots. No-show rates run 10-15% — high for a service business — so therapists overbook by ~15% and confirm via SMS the day before. The form captures areas of concern (anxiety / depression / couples / trauma / family / substance use), insurance carrier or sliding-scale interest, in-person vs telehealth preference, and a brief 'what brings you here?' textarea. Speed-to-call matters: therapy seekers research carefully then act on impulse — a 24-48 hour reply is standard, but same-day reaches the prospect when the motivation is fresh.

Where submissions go
Reply-to is wired to the visitor's email, so one tap on Reply answers them directly — while the built-in honeypot and spam classifier filter out bots before they reach you. Every submission is emailed to your inbox and can forward to a webhook or Slack the moment a visitor hits send.

Testimonials
40 quotes on record — from indie hacks to agency migrations.
“I replaced a Lambda + DynamoDB + SES contact form with six lines of HTML. It took eleven minutes, and the dashboard is better than what I was going to build.”
“We migrated 14 client sites off Formspree in a single weekend. The price is a third of what we paid, the API is more honest, and the spam filter actually works.”
“The webhook payload is signed, idempotent, and well-shaped. It reads like code from a competent team, not a CRUD app held together with duct tape.”
“I stopped reaching for Typeform on small marketing sites. splitforms covers 90% of the use case at none of the bloat.”
“I onboarded our whole agency in an afternoon. The MCP integration meant Cursor literally dropped the form straight into our client repos for us.”
“The free plan gave me 500 submissions before I paid a cent, and Pro is five dollars a month. I've spent more on coffee deciding which backend to use.”
“Spam went from forty junk entries a day to zero, with no reCAPTCHA puzzle ruining the form. The honeypot and time-trap just quietly do their job.”
“Point the form action at one endpoint and you're done. No SDK, no client library, no build step. This is how a form backend should feel.”
“Leads land in Slack the second someone submits, and a copy goes to Google Sheets for the sales team. I wired both up in under ten minutes.”
“I run a static Hugo site on a five-dollar VPS. splitforms gave it a real contact form without me standing up a single server.”
Questions
Not out of the box — no BAA on the standard plan. For HIPAA-compliant intake collecting protected health information (PHI), use SimplePractice, TherapyNotes, or JotForm's HIPAA tier. The splitforms form is fine for the public-facing 'request a consult' step (name, phone, general areas of concern) — keep the detailed intake on the HIPAA platform once they book. Consult your HIPAA officer.
All three EHR-grade therapy CRMs accept inbound leads via Zapier or webhook. The lead lands as a prospective client; the formal intake (PHI) happens inside the platform's secure portal, not on the splitforms form. Two-stage funnel keeps you on the right side of HIPAA.
Add a 'how do you plan to pay?' radio: insurance / private pay / sliding-scale request. Sliding-scale requests get a 'we have limited slots and will reach out if available' auto-response. Most therapists hold 10-20% of caseload for sliding-scale; the field manages expectations honestly.
The form should explicitly state: 'this form is not for emergencies. If you're in crisis, call 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline) or 911.' Liability requires that disclaimer prominently above the form. Most therapists also add 'I am not currently in crisis' as a required confirmation checkbox.
