Account and login

Delete your account

Delete from Account settings with your password. You are logged out at once and the account is removed after 7 days.

Updated 9 October 20261 min readBy the Mytherapist.ng support team

Go to Account settings and tap Delete, then enter your password and a reason. You are logged out immediately, and the account is permanently deleted 7 days later. You cannot undo it yourself, so read this before you tap.

What happens

  1. Straight away: you are logged out and cannot log back in. Login shows "These credentials do not match our records".
  2. For the next 7 days: the account is scheduled for deletion. There is no undo button in the app.
  3. After 7 days: the account and its data are permanently removed. A few details are kept for our records.

Before you delete

  • Your wallet balance is forfeited, not refunded. Use it before you delete.
  • Refunds for cancelled sessions go to the wallet, so cancelling a session just before deleting does not get that money back either.
  • Read the button labels carefully before you confirm, so you tap the one you mean.

Deleted by mistake

Write to us as soon as possible, and within the 7 days, from the contact page using the email on the account. Reversing a deletion is possible only inside that window and only on our side, so do not wait.

Your data

To ask for a copy of your data, write to us from the contact page using the email on your account.

Therapists

Therapists cannot delete their own account from the app. Write to us from the contact page using the email on your account and we will disable it, which removes your access.
