What We Do
TherapyNotes™ is an online practice management system for behavioral health, featuring robust notes, scheduling, and billing features.
The heart of TherapyNotes™ is the notes system. Whereas most practice management systems offer a generic free-form text area, TherapyNotes™ offers an easy-to-use form-filled approach, greatly speeding up data entry and note writing. The notes were carefully designed by TherapyNotes™ cofounder and psychologist Debra Pliner, with feedback from other psychologists, psychiatrists, and significant research to maximize compliance with insurance, HIPAA, and industry standards.
TherapyNotes™ also offers a powerful “to do” list which automatically directs clinicians regarding what actions need to be taken such as notes to write after sessions, to contact the primary care physician when appropriate, or reminders to schedule treatment plan updates.
TherapyNotes™ was developed by the husband and wife team: Dr. Debra Pliner, clinical psychologist, and Brad Pliner, web technologies expert, to fill a need for a practice management system that was built for the unique needs of mental health practitioners.
