The EHR Built for Couples & Family Therapists
Couples and family therapists need EHR software that captures the dynamics of multi-person sessions, supports collaborative treatment plans, and makes documentation faster and simpler — without sacrificing clinical depth.
ICANotes is the only behavioral-health-specific EHR with structured, menu-driven charting designed to help marriage and family therapists (MFTs), couples counselors, and family therapists create clear, comprehensive, and defensible notes in a fraction of the time.
Whether you're supporting parents and children, blended families, couples in distress, or multi-generational systems, ICANotes gives you intuitive tools that help you document quickly, stay compliant, and provide exceptional care.
Why Family & Couples Therapists Need Specialized EHR Software
Family therapy isn’t just “individual therapy with more people in the room.” It requires documentation that captures:
- Interaction patterns
- Relationship dynamics
- Systems-level themes
- Individual goals within shared treatment plans
- Safety concerns and risk factors
- Progress toward relational outcomes

Templates built for couples and family sessions
Clear documentation of goals, interventions, and outcomes
Fast note creation with menu-driven charting
Easy documentation for multi-client sessions
Integration with billing workflows for couples counseling CPT codes
