Establishing Care at the Porch

If you are a new client seeking our services, please don’t hesitate to contact us by phone at 417-815-6313. Normal business hours are 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., Monday through Friday.

Please do not stop by our office unless you have an appointment. Our administrator often works remotely, and there may not be anyone available to assist you, as our therapists are typically in session for most of the day.

If you are unable to reach someone on the phone, please leave a message. We strive to return calls before the end of the next business day.

The PORCH Therapy Group makes every effort to enroll new clients with a therapist in a timely manner. However, due to the high demand for services, this can take anywhere from a few weeks to a few months.

Please DON’T fill out or turn in paperwork until instructed to do so. There are different versions of intake forms depending on the therapist.

If you or someone you care for is experiencing a psychiatric emergency, call the crisis hotline (MOCARS) 24 hours a day, 7 days a week at 800-356-5395 or simply dial 988.
