The customer service is outstanding, with webinars, training, and responsive support that adapts to our needs.

Medical Director/CEO

"The Best EHR from a Medical Director’s Perspective"

"After using ICANotes for over a decade, I strongly prefer it over non-specialized systems. Its ease of use, checkbox symptom selection, and button-based text insertion make documentation fast and efficient. The built-in e-prescribing is a major plus and an excellent tool for training new clinicians in our practice."

What Is a Therapy EHR?

A therapy EHR (Electronic Health Record) is specialized software that helps therapists and other mental health professionals manage client documentation, treatment plans, scheduling, billing, and telehealth in one secure system. Unlike general medical EHRs, ICANotes was built exclusively for behavioral health. That means it comes ready with therapy-specific note templates, over 100 built-in clinical rating scales, and intuitive workflows that make writing comprehensive, compliant notes fast and easy. With ICANotes, therapists save time on documentation, stay audit-ready, and keep their focus where it belongs — on client care.
