Clinical Directory
What is the purpose of the Clinical Directory?
The Clinical Directory allows members of the NCCBT Network to describe their practices and share information about their professional activities with each other. Only members of the NCCBT Network have access to the directory. This is not a directory accessed by the public.
How do I make changes to my Clinical Directory listing?
After logging into our website, select Profile if you are not already on that page. Then click on the gray button labeled "EDIT PROFILE" and make your changes. See HERE for more details.
How do I use the Clinical Directory to search for providers?
After logging into our website, the Clinical Directory will appear in the main menu. Do a quick search by typing in the name of a therapist you know or selecting the various categories of interest. Go to Advanced Search to do a more detailed search based on every criterion available to search. Click on the clinician whose profile you are interested in viewing. Contact them either by using the button or emailing them directly.
What if I don't want my profile to be listed in the Clinical Directory?
If you do not wish to have your information listed in the private Clinical Directory, click on the "Privacy" link under the "EDIT PROFILE" button, then click "EDIT PROFILE" and uncheck "Show Profile to Others".
I can’t upload my profile picture because it’s too small. What do I do?
The Clinical Directory profiles use common social media image sizes. For profile photos, you’ll get the best results with a square .jpeg format image that’s 110 pixels x 110 pixels. The .png format works, too, though those images tend to be larger file sizes.
My profile link to my website doesn’t work.
If you’ve entered a valid link to a functioning website, please carefully check the url you entered on your profile. In almost every case, users have inadvertently entered a space before, after or between words in the url.
You do not need to enter ‘http://’ or ‘www’ before your url.
If you continue having problems after checking your url for spelling and spaces, please contact us at support@nccbt.net.
How can I change the email address or any information that appears on my Clinical Directory profile?
Log into our website and select your name in the top left or click here to view your profile. Select Edit and change whichever fields you wish to edit.
What if my specialty/languages spoken/insurance accepted, etc., is not listed as a category?
Please email support@nccbt.net if there is a category or selection you think would benefit our membership.
