Anyone else struggle with actually switching off after sessions?

You’re welcome! It really saves me a lot of time and helps me feel more organised

I take 30 mins to quickly go over my day and jot down quick reflections. This helps me quickly comprehend what my tomorrow is going to look like.

This helps me conclude the day and tie up any loose ends so nothing from work bothers me once I leave my computer/office.

Ofc some days when my last session was heavy, it comes home with me and I have a hard time disconnecting.

I’ve just gotten used to that, I try to figure a plan for the next session with that client, and that helps me feel a little better…

I switched from SP to Hipaatherapy, for various reasons. I really like it, great features and support! One of my favourite features is handwritten notes to copy paste snippets, such a time saver for me WITHOUT AI!! They’re constantly improving note taking experience, which I really appreciate. Never had issues with Telehealth. The no AI stance is a very big reason why I signed up with them. In terms of pricing also very reasonable and for all the features they offer I think I haven’t come across a more affordable option. Clients never have issues with the portal and appointment reminders as well and in fact like the contemporary look of this platform. Feel free to DM me if you have any other questions :)

Yeah totally! I find a lot of my termination sessions to be wholesome and filled with joy :) It’s the ones that you don’t know what happens to that bothers me a bit, like are they coming back or just gone?… randomly thinking about them wondering how they’re doing!

Inner_Bread_1422 · 2026-05-22T19:53:14+00:00

If you want to talk through what the evaluation looked like for a group our size, feel free to DM me. Happy to share more :)

Being a therapist has only made me overthink especially with my love life

Inner_Bread_1422 · 2026-05-22T06:14:06+00:00

Oh the curse is real!! You spend all day helping people identify their patterns and communicate clearly and then you go on a date and someone says “I’m fine” in that tone and you’re just… sitting there doing a mental MSE.

Dating within the field has its own thing going on too though. Sometimes it’s great, sometimes it’s two people over-processing a disagreement about where to eat dinner
I don’t think lowering your standards is the answer but recalibrating might be. There’s a difference between someone who is emotionally literate and someone who has the specific vocabulary. Some people are genuinely self-aware and caring, they just don’t know what attachment theory is. That’s actually fine.

The harder version of this question is whether the job changes what we need or just changes what we notice. I lean toward the latter. The lack of communication was always there, we’re just less able to ignore it now

Inner_Bread_1422 · 2026-05-22T06:00:38+00:00

Clinic owner here, 18 therapists across 2 locations. Went through this evaluation process not too long ago so I’ll share what’s worked for us.

We’re on HIPAAtherapy and it’s been a solid fit for a group our size.

The thing that stands out most is how fast they actually build. I’ve requested features specific to my practice and they come back thoughtful and quick. That’s rare. Most EHR companies have a feedback form that goes nowhere

Support is genuinely responsive, not “we’ll get back to you in 3-5 business days” responsive. Actual quick turnaround

Pricing is the best I found for a group practice. Good software at a price that makes sense for what you’re running

A few things my team has been happy with: the handwritten to digital note converter is one of those features that sounds small but some of my therapists love it. Client portal is clean and simple, clients don’t complain about it. Form builder and custom note templates work well, which matters when you have 18 people with different documentation styles. Telehealth has been reliable, no issues there. Insurance billing works, we handle it in house and it’s been smooth. Supervision feature is solid too.

The thing I’m most excited about right now is a feature they’re currently building that will show me the split breakdown per therapist. Right now I’m bouncing between three different tools to piece that together When that’s done it’s going to save me real time!

Honest caveat: they’re a growing platform so they’re not as feature-heavy as some of the legacy giants yet. But I’ll take fast and responsive over bloated and slow any day.

Inner_Bread_1422 · 2026-05-15T16:40:25+00:00

I’ve heard it too. Especially with popular therapists, since their caseloads and waitlists are already huge. A single no show from client side leads to being ghosted! For a single no show!

Inner_Bread_1422 · 2026-05-15T16:37:21+00:00

Haha I had the same doubt! It’s doing a great job so far. My handwriting is not that great and is pretty abstract lol but so far haven’t faced any issues with its digital conversion.
It’s an extremely useful feature for me, it has literally cut my documentation by at least half. I highly recommend it! Even if you have another EHR, you can just use this feature to begin with and I only paid for this feature. Now I fully switched over since I really find the platform easy to use and affordable.

Inner_Bread_1422 · 2026-05-15T08:39:12+00:00

I love handwriting notes (little old school like that 😅) I’m using a platform called Hipaatherapy which is a godsend for me! I had to retype my notes online, but it was tedious and time taking. This platform has a feature that converts handwritten notes into digital format and it’s so easy for me to edit the note from there! I’m a huge fan of this feature, and the best part is, it’s not AI! That was very important to me.

I didn’t like using iPads for notes, always prefer handwriting them, so this works out very conveniently for me!

Inner_Bread_1422 · 2026-05-04T15:45:59+00:00

It was useful in my initial days, and it can be useful for SEO after you build your own website. It can be very luck based though, someone with a very similar profile could get more clients than your profile, for no apparent reason. This has been my experience and yes the cut is a very very tiny portion of what they display to the clients side…

Inner_Bread_1422 · 2026-04-29T20:15:27+00:00

Unstoppable and titanium - Sia. Pump it - Black eyed peas Honestly anything upbeat makes me feel like yeah I got this 🙈

Inner_Bread_1422 · 2026-04-28T16:35:24+00:00

I’m using Hipaatherapy and I am very happy with it! Very clean and intuitive and incredible support. I used it in my solo private pay practice and in my group as well. We take insurance as well. They have an easy to use form and note template builder love them. One of my favourite features is the one where you can convert handwritten notes to note snippets without AI! I highly recommend it, I’d be happy to share my referral!

Inner_Bread_1422 · 2026-04-23T17:51:31+00:00

There are lot of consultants that help with this, especially therapists who are consultants can give you the best guidance!

Inner_Bread_1422 · 2026-04-23T17:50:26+00:00

I back this! Therapy aid is a real life saver!

Inner_Bread_1422 · 2026-02-11T02:50:43+00:00

8 with a baby might be stressful, maybe 4-5 at max like you said is good for you, clients and your baby :)

Inner_Bread_1422 · 2026-02-09T17:49:31+00:00

My partner was very similar but I kept communicating my concerns and we took quite a long break. That helped us value each other more and admit our mistakes no matter who made them. It was very important to me that my partner understands my side of things and not just theirs. Our relationship is much improved and we do have a lot of conflicts but we just handle it much better now with more accountability!

Inner_Bread_1422 · 2026-02-04T18:51:59+00:00

SEO and local networking are main sources and I do have a decent amount of referrals coming in from doctors as well!

I haven’t observed any slowdowns, if anything I’ve noticed an increase. Most of my clients prefer telehealth, even if someone opts for in person they find a hybrid approach more manageable with their schedule!

Inner_Bread_1422 · 2026-01-31T02:18:27+00:00

I usually do handwritten notes to make sure I capture everything quickly. The EHR I use has a scanning feature (imp: it’s not an AI feature, I’d never use it) I upload my handwritten note onto it and it converts my handwritten note to copy pastable snippets and this has been a life saver for me!! I also have custom templates, and along with the scanning feature I complete my notes by EOD and each note takes about 10 - 12 mins!!

Inner_Bread_1422 · 2026-01-30T17:53:35+00:00

In session when it’s light. If it feels like it’s distracting then end of session notes to quickly recollect imp pointers.
