    9) If the system crashes or you are kicked out of the waiting room, attempt to rejoin. If you are unable to rejoin, your provider will call you via the phone number associated with your medical chart. The call may be from a restricted or unrecognized number, so make sure you have your phone set to be able to receive/accept such calls. If your provider cannot get a hold of you by phone for some reason, they will leave a message, and try again within 5 min. If they still cannot reach you, they will send you a message through your patient portal to coordinate care.

  • Send your questions and/or feedback in 1 of 2 ways: through an email via 

    patientservices@psychmatter.com, or in a message to your provider through the patient portal. Please note that the ‘Contact Us’ button within the patient portal does NOT actually allow you to contact us! Psych Matter is unique in operation, resulting in this electronic medical record/patient portal redundancy. 

This page is designed for pre-existing patients who need step-by-step assistance navigating the patient portal, or who don’t know what to do if something technologically goes wrong during an appointment. Please keep in mind, that any specific questions not included in the “FAQ” or “How to…” pages should be sent to patientservices@psychmatter.com, or in a message to your provider through the patient portal.
