Taking time off

Pause new bookings for a holiday or a break, and what happens to sessions already booked.

Updated 28 October 2026By the Mytherapist.ng support team

Time off stops new bookings for the dates you choose. Your profile stays up, and bookings reopen on their own when you're back.

Schedule time off

  1. Go to Account → Time off.
  2. Set First day unavailable, and Bookings resume on — the day you're back.
  3. Tap Schedule time off.

Sessions already booked

Time off doesn't cancel sessions you already have. If any fall in your dates, the app lists them first and asks what you'd like to do:

  • Review sessions first — go back and check them.
  • Keep sessions and schedule — schedule your time off and keep those sessions.

Your clients aren't told about your time off. If a session needs to move, message support and we'll help find your client a new time.

While you're away

Clients can still see your profile but can't book you for those dates. We'll email you when your time off starts and when it ends.

Changing your plans

Back early? Tap Resume bookings. To change time off that hasn't started yet, update the dates and tap Update time off, or tap Remove time off to cancel it.
