# Psychologists: automatic upsell and cross-sell with an AI agent

> Your patients already trust you. An AI agent offers packages, couples therapy, and follow-ups at the right moment, without you having to ask.

## Your biggest revenue isn't new patients

Most psychologists spend all their energy chasing new patients. But the revenue that grows fastest doesn't come from outside: it comes from the people who already trust you. A patient who finishes eight sessions could continue with a maintenance package. Someone who came in for anxiety might benefit from couples therapy. Someone who closed their process six months ago may need to come back.

The problem is that asking for this feels awkward. Offering a package or suggesting another service mid-session sounds like selling, and selling clashes with the clinical role. So most practices don't do it. And they leave the easiest revenue they have sitting on the table.

At Catalizadora we build AI agents that do this work for you, with tact, at the right moment, and in your practice's voice. You don't have to sell anything.

## What upsell and cross-sell mean in a mental health practice

It's not pressure. It's offering the right thing at the right time:

- **Upsell:** the person paying per single session can move to a multi-session package or a monthly follow-up plan. Better continuity for the patient, steadier income for you.
- **Cross-sell:** someone who came for individual therapy can add couples therapy, assessments, workshops, or a specific program you already offer.
- **Reactivation:** someone who closed their process gets a warm message months later, inviting them to return if they need to.

All of this happens outside the session, over WhatsApp, so it never contaminates the clinical space. The patient never feels pressured in session, and you never have to switch hats between therapist and salesperson mid-appointment. That separation is exactly what makes it work in mental health.

## How the agent does it without sounding like a salesperson

The agent works from what's already in your CRM: which stage each person is in, how many sessions they've had, when the last one was. With that, it acts at exactly the right moment.

### Concrete examples

- A patient completed their sixth single session. The agent writes: "To keep your progress going, many patients move to the four-session package, which also works out better per session. Want me to share the options?"
- A patient mentioned relationship tension in session. With your approval, the agent offers a first couples session a few days later.
- Someone closed their process five months ago. The agent sends a short, human message asking how they're doing and reminding them the door is still open.

In all three cases, the agent qualifies the interest, books the appointment, and, if applicable, sends the payment link. And everything lands back in the CRM. If the person doesn't reply, the agent waits, doesn't over-insist, and logs the conversation so you can decide whether a human follow-up is worth it. Nothing gets lost and nothing turns awkward.

The key is that the timing is chosen with data, not at random. Offering a package to someone barely into their first session would be clumsy; offering it to someone who already completed six is natural. The agent knows that difference because it lives inside your CRM.

## Doing it by hand vs. with the agent

| Task | By hand | With the AI agent |
|---|---|---|
| Remembering who finished their process | Slips through the cracks | The CRM knows, the agent acts |
| Offering a package | Awkward in session | Over WhatsApp, with tact, outside session |
| Reactivating old patients | Almost never happens | Automatic at the right moment |
| Suggesting couples therapy | Gets forgotten | The agent proposes it with your sign-off |

The room for improvement is large. If your practice bills, say, 4,000 dollars a month and the agent recovers even 3 or 4 processes a month between packages and reactivations, that's hundreds of dollars a month that don't exist today. Without hiring anyone and without you lifting a finger.

## You're always in control

This matters in mental health: the agent doesn't improvise offers. You define what's offered, to whom, and when. You flag which patients are in an active process and should receive no offers. The agent respects those limits to the letter. No pressuring someone in crisis.

The visibility side of your site, so you reach more people in the first place, is handled by a proprietary technical layer. You only see the result.

## What you get, and what's yours

As with everything we do at Catalizadora:

- **The code, the data, and the infrastructure are 100% yours.** The agent and your CRM belong to you, with no retainers or locked-in licenses.
- **No monthly fee to us.** Operations run pass-through, roughly 200 to 400 dollars a month for hosting and tokens, with no margin for us.
- **MAGIA Solo: 4,500 dollars, 15 days.** Includes brand, site, content machine, AI agent, and CRM. If you need something bigger, MAGIA Core costs 15,000 dollars and Forge 20,000 over 12 weeks.

We follow the MAGIA methodology: Mapping, Architecture, Generation, Implementation, and Autonomy, so we hand you a system that runs on its own.

## Start today

You already have the hard part: patients who trust you. What's left is not letting the revenue they represent slip away, without turning yourself into a salesperson.

## Preguntas frecuentes

### Isn't upselling aggressive in mental health?

Not when it's done with tact and under your control. The agent only offers what you define, to whom you define, outside the session and over WhatsApp. Patients in crisis or in an active process are excluded. It's about continuity of care, not pressure.

### How does the agent know who to offer what?

It works from your CRM: each patient's stage, how many sessions they've had, and when the last one was. With that it acts at the right moment, whether it's a package, a reactivation, or a cross-sell like couples therapy.

### How much does it cost and what's included?

MAGIA Solo costs 4,500 dollars and is delivered in 15 days, with brand, site, content machine, AI agent, and CRM. For bigger needs, MAGIA Core costs 15,000 dollars and Forge 20,000 over 12 weeks. There's no monthly fee to us, only the pass-through of 200 to 400 dollars for hosting and tokens.

### Are the agent and the CRM mine?

Yes. The code, data, and infrastructure are 100% your property, with no retainers or locked-in licenses. You can take everything with you if you ever decide to.

### Do I decide what gets offered?

Always. You define the services, the prices, and the rules for when and to whom to offer. The agent respects those limits precisely and never improvises offers on its own.
