How to Message Your Provider Between Sessions

Communication is key to your care journey. Spring Health provides a secure, HIPAA-compliant messaging platform that allows you to reach out to your provider between scheduled appointments. Whether you need to share a quick update, ask a clarifying question about a coping strategy, or confirm a logistical detail, you can do so directly from your dashboard.

Note: Messaging access is activated after you have scheduled your first session with a specific provider.

How to Send a Secure Message

You can access the messaging portal from both your computer and your mobile device.

On Desktop
  1. Log in to your Spring Health account at care.springhealth.com.
  2. Navigate to the Messages tab located in the left-hand sidebar.
  3. Select the provider you wish to contact from your list.
  4. Type your message and click Send.

On the Mobile App
  1. Log in to the Spring Health app.
  2. Tap the paper airplane icon located at the top of the home screen.
  3. Select your provider, compose your message, and tap Send.

What to Expect with Messaging

  • Response Times: Providers generally check their messages during their standard business hours and typically respond within three business days. Messaging is intended for non-urgent communication.
  • Clinical Depth: While messaging is great for brief check-ins or logistical questions, deeper clinical work is best reserved for your face-to-face sessions. If you have a complex topic to discuss, we recommend scheduling your next appointment as soon as possible.
  • Notifications: You will receive an email notification whenever your provider sends a reply, ensuring you stay connected without needing to constantly check the app.
