AI Notes for Behavioral Health Organizations & Group Practices

The leading AI note solutions for behavioral health clinics in 2025 fall into two categories: general medical AI scribes adapted for behavioral health (e.g. Abridge, Nuance DAX, Suki), and behavioral-health-specific AI platforms purpose-built for therapists (e.g. Mentalyc, Upheal, Blueprint). For behavioral health organizations evaluating AI scribe platforms, the key differentiators are: therapy-specific note formats (SOAP, DAP, BIRP), HIPAA and BAA coverage, EHR integration without replacement, multi-clinician oversight and supervisor workflows, and pricing that scales for agencies and group practices. Mentalyc is built specifically for therapists and behavioral health organizations. See the comparison section above for feature-by-feature breakdowns.

Mentalyc is an AI scribe built specifically for behavioral health, not a general medical scribe retrofitted for therapy. Unlike general AI scribes for behavioral health like Abridge or Nuance DAX, Mentalyc is trained on therapy-specific note formats (SOAP, DAP, BIRP, progress notes), therapeutic frameworks, and clinical language used in mental health. Mentalyc is HIPAA-compliant with BAAs, works alongside any EHR rather than replacing it, and supports multi-clinician oversight with supervisor review and co-sign workflows for agencies, CMHCs, and group practices.

Yes. Mentalyc is built for behavioral health organizations, nonprofits, community mental health centers, and counseling agencies, not just solo therapists. We offer AI notes for behavioral health teams with org-level BAAs, flexible per-clinician pricing with no per-location fees, role-based permissions for supervisors and interns, and multi-site support. Mentalyc sits on top of your existing EHR rather than replacing it, so your org keeps its systems of record and adds AI documentation on top.

Yes. Mentalyc generates documentation for supervision sessions, including supervisee progress notes and supervisor sign-offs, structured for licensing board requirements. Supervision notes are included in every Team plan seat at no extra cost, so both supervisors and supervisees in your group practice get full access. This is not available in most AI note tools built for solo therapists.

Yes. Your practice dashboard gives you an overview of all active clinicians, their caseloads, and documentation status. You can drill into individual clinicians or look at practice-wide patterns without scheduling weekly check-ins. Owners and admins can review team members' notes and client information, view unsaved notes, and assign or reassign seats from the same dashboard.

All documentation stays under your practice account. You retain full access regardless of clinician turnover, which matters for audit trails, continuity of care, and licensing board obligations. Departing clinicians lose access to client records when their seat is reassigned, but the practice owner keeps everything.

No sales call needed. Sign up, choose the group plan, and invite your clinicians via a link. Everyone gets a 14-day free trial with full access, no credit card required, no individual setup per clinician. Pricing is fully transparent on this page. You can add or remove seats anytime from your dashboard.

One flat price per clinician, per month, $49.99/seat billed annually or $59.99/seat billed monthly. Every seat on the Team plan gets unlimited notes and full access to all features, including group therapy notes, supervision notes, treatment plans, Alliance Genie™, and Progress Tracker. No tiered plans, no per-session charges, no "basic vs. advanced" per clinician. If your team has a mix of full caseloads and lighter schedules, everyone pays the same rate and gets the same tools.

Mentalyc works alongside your existing EHR, you don't need to switch systems. Using the Mentalyc Chrome extension, you write your therapy notes in Mentalyc and send them directly into your EHR in one click. It currently works with SimplePractice, TherapyNotes, Jane App, ICANotes, TheraNest, Valant, and more.

Yes. Mentalyc generates group therapy notes both for the session as a whole and individual progress notes for every participant, automatically, without manual splitting or copy-paste between records. Group notes are included in the SUPER plan and in every seat of the Team plan, so every clinician in your group practice gets full access at no extra cost.

Yes. Mentalyc is fully HIPAA-compliant and SOC 2 Type II certified in the U.S., and also meets Australian Privacy Principles and Canada's PIPEDA, PHIPA, PIPA, and PHIA standards. Mentalyc is trusted by 30,000+ therapists for HIPAA compliant AI therapy notes with full end-to-end encryption and US-based data residency.

Beyond compliance, Mentalyc offers full data anonymization, session audio is processed and immediately deleted, and transcripts are stripped of identifying details.
