Getting approved and verified

What happens while we review your application, and how your qualifications get verified.

Updated 28 October 2026By the Mytherapist.ng support team

Our team reviews every new account before clients can find it. While you wait, you can sign in and get everything ready.

While you're under review

The Account Status card on your Home tab shows Under Review. Clients can't see or book you yet, but you can:

  • Finish your profile in Account → Edit profile.
  • Set your price and weekly hours in Account → Session settings. Clients only find you once your hours are saved, so do this early.
  • Add your bank account in Account → Bank settings.
  • Work through the onboarding guides in Account → Learning.

We'll email you when you're approved. Your status changes to Active, and clients can start booking you.

Verifying your qualifications

  1. Go to Account → Edit profile and find Qualifications.
  2. Tap Select, choose your degrees, licences and certifications, and tap Save.
  3. Tap Upload proof under each one and choose a clear photo or scan of the certificate.

The app uploads images only. If your certificate is a PDF, take a screenshot of it and upload that.

Each qualification shows where it's up to, and we'll notify you when it's reviewed:

  • Proof needed — upload a document.
  • Under review — we're checking it.
  • Verified — it shows a badge on your public profile.
  • Rejected — the reviewer's note says why. Tap Replace proof to try again.

Uploading a new document sends that qualification back for review. Removing a verified qualification removes its badge too.

If your application is declined

We'll email you the reason, and your Account Status card will show Declined. Update your profile or documents, then tap the card and choose Message support to ask for another review.
