What Is a Referral?
A referral is when you go see a therapist because a doctor recommended you do so. An official doctor’s referral typically comes in the form of a letter or is discussed and arranged telephonically or via email between the doctor and the therapist.
You often have little control over which therapist you see. When you’re referred to a mental health institution, your choice may also depend on which providers your insurance will reimburse. In both cases, there’s a good chance you’ll end up on a waiting list.
Do I Need a Referral to Book a Session?
No, the good news is that you don’t need a referral before you can book a session at Global Online Therapy. This is one of the perks of not having contracts or agreements with insurers and other third parties.

The Benefits of Not Needing a Referral
The fact that you don’t need a referral at Global Online Therapy brings many benefits. This includes:
- Getting the help you need when you feel you need it.
- Not getting stuck on a waiting list for months, waiting for an expert to get to you finally.
- Skipping the additional costs of getting to an expert via-the-via (even if you’re going the health insurance route, there are still excess amounts to be paid).
