SCUPsyc uses four straightforward payment routes: one professional membership fee for psychologists and three consultation formats for clients.
Choose the amount of interaction you need
Start with a structured written response, speak by phone, or use a full live video hour. A paid consultation creates one matching request entitlement in the Client Portal.
Important: use the same email address in Stripe Checkout and in your SCUPsyc Portal account. Successful payments are matched to the portal automatically by email.
Psychologist Membership - $95
Pays for access to the professional membership route, profile setup, network participation and member resources. Payment does not itself verify credentials or authorize practice in any jurisdiction.
Important: use the same email address in Stripe Checkout and in your SCUPsyc Portal account. Successful payments are matched to the portal automatically by email.
Written Consultation - $49
Pays for a structured written review of the concern submitted through the service workflow, a clear written response, psychoeducational context, practical next steps and guidance about appropriate follow-up.

Why Membership & Fees matters
Membership & Fees is built to help visitors move from information to a sensible next step. Psychology websites can become overwhelming when they present many topics without explaining what a person should actually do with the information. SCUPsyc therefore combines readable guidance, downloadable symptom resources, clearly priced consultation formats, professional profiles and a user portal so that visitors can choose a level of support appropriate to their question without being pushed into a service they do not understand.
A practical route
1. Start with the question
Identify the concern, symptom pattern, relationship issue, career question or professional need you want to understand.
2. Use the information first
Read the relevant page or downloadable guide and note the questions that remain unclear or personally important.
3. Choose the right level of contact
Use written guidance for a structured response, phone for focused live discussion or Zoom when a full face-to-face video hour is more useful.
4. Use the portal
Pay with the same email as your portal account, then submit the matching request and provide only the information reasonably needed.
Frequently asked questions
Do I have to book immediately?
No. The information and downloadable guides can be used first so you can decide whether a consultation would add value.
What is the difference between the three consultation formats?
Written consultation provides a structured response; phone and Zoom provide 60 minutes of live interaction, with Zoom adding face-to-face video.
Does a consultation guarantee a diagnosis?
No. SCUPsyc consultations are supportive and psychoeducational and may recommend local clinical or medical assessment when appropriate.
How is payment matched to my request?
Stripe payment is verified automatically and matched by email. Use the same email in checkout and the SCUPsyc Portal.
