Scheduling Software Built for Speech Therapists
Let clients and parents book your speech therapy appointment page directly — initial assessments, therapy sessions, and progress consultations — with no tracking and full patient data privacy.
Why do speech therapists struggle to manage appointments in private practice?
Speech therapy in private practice involves patients of all ages — from toddlers with language delays to adults recovering from stroke — and coordination often happens through a parent, carer, or referrer rather than the patient directly. This adds a layer of communication complexity to every booking. Initial assessments are significantly longer than ongoing sessions; parent consultation meetings happen on a separate schedule. And because many clients are children or individuals with health conditions, the data privacy requirements are particularly stringent. Tymeslot handles the booking complexity with separate appointment types, automatic reminders to whoever made the booking, and privacy-first design that can be fully self-hosted.
Everything Speech Therapists need. Nothing they don't.
Purpose-built scheduling features for your practice — without the bloat.
Separate Appointment Types
Configure distinct booking pages for initial assessments, therapy sessions, and parent consultations — each with its own duration, buffer time, and direct booking link.
GDPR-Ready Patient Data Handling
No third-party tracking or analytics on your booking page. Self-host on your own server for complete control over sensitive client health data, especially important when working with children and vulnerable adults.
Automatic Reminders for Parents and Carers
The person who makes the booking receives automatic email reminders before each appointment — reducing no-shows from busy parents who have many competing commitments.
Buffer Time Between Sessions
Set automatic preparation and notes time between clients so you can document progress from each session before the next appointment begins.
Direct Links per Appointment Type
After an initial assessment, send families a direct link to book their ongoing therapy sessions — the right duration, the right preparation, without confusion.
Progress Review Consultations
Create a dedicated booking type for parent or carer progress reviews — separate from therapy sessions — so family conversations happen on their own schedule without interrupting clinical time.

Common scheduling scenarios
How other Speech Therapists use Tymeslot every day.
How do speech therapists manage new client intake from parent and carer referrals?
Most speech therapy referrals come through parents, schools, or GPs rather than the client directly. The parent coordinating a booking is typically managing multiple children's appointments, work schedules, and school runs — friction in the booking process means the referral simply doesn't convert to an appointment.
- Parent receives a booking link from a school or GP referral and opens the 'Initial Assessment' page
- Selects a 90-minute slot outside school hours from your live availability
- Receives a confirmation email with what to bring, what to observe beforehand, and a questionnaire link
- Automated reminder fires 48 hours before the assessment with the same preparation notes
How do speech therapists manage recurring therapy session schedules?
Effective speech therapy requires consistent, regular sessions — typically weekly or fortnightly over several months. When sessions are arranged one at a time by phone, gaps appear between appointments that slow progress and frustrate families.
- After the initial assessment, send the family a direct link to the 'Therapy Session' booking page
- Parent books all sessions for the therapy programme at once, choosing slots that fit school schedules
- Each session triggers its own confirmation and automatic reminder
- If a session needs to be rescheduled, the parent self-services from the link
How do speech therapists run parent progress consultations without disrupting therapy?
Keeping parents and carers informed about therapy progress is an essential part of private practice — but these conversations should happen in dedicated consultation slots, not as extensions of a child's therapy session that eat into clinical time.
- Create a 'Parent Consultation' meeting type with a 30-minute duration and a separate booking link
- After each milestone — typically every 6–8 sessions — send the parent the consultation booking link
- Parent books a slot that works for them, separate from the child's therapy schedule
- Both receive reminders; the consultation happens prepared, with progress notes ready

"Most of my clients are children booked by parents who are juggling school runs and work. The old system of phone booking during clinic hours was losing me referrals — parents would call, get my voicemail, and book elsewhere. Online booking changed that immediately. Parents book at 9pm if they need to, reminders go out automatically, and I self-host it so child health data never leaves my own server."
