AI Scribe for Counselors
Counseling notes have to tell two stories at once: the clinical work, and the medical necessity that keeps claims paid. Sessionote drafts both from your session.
Notes tied to the treatment plan
Insurance scrutiny on counseling notes usually lands on one thing: does the session connect to the treatment plan and show medical necessity. Sessionote drafts progress notes that reference the presenting problem, the intervention, the client's response and progress toward goals, in SOAP, DAP, BIRP or GIRP, so the clinical thread and the billable thread line up. That is what survives an audit.
Built for the counseling relationship
Counseling is relational work, and the note should reflect technique and process, not just a symptom checklist. Because Sessionote was built for behavioral health, it captures the counseling approach you used and the direction of the work, in your own register, instead of squeezing it into a medical template.
Less after-hours charting
Counselors lose hours each week to documentation, a top driver of burnout. Sessionote drafts the note as the session happens, in person or by telehealth, and lets you refine in plain language or edit by hand. You approve every note before it is saved.
Unlimited notes, one flat price
Sessionote is $79 per provider per month with unlimited notes. No tiers, no per-note fees, no paying more to use it fully. Many AI scribes do the opposite: a low entry price that caps how many notes you can write, with unlimited use locked behind a plan two to four times more expensive.
| Plan | Starting price | Notes included |
|---|---|---|
| Sessionote | $79/mo, flat | Unlimited, every plan |
| Typical tiered scribe | $39/mo to start | Entry plan capped (often around 40/mo); unlimited runs $119+ |
| Enterprise tools | $400–$700+/mo | Unlimited, but built for large systems with a sales process |
Your busiest month costs the same as your slowest. You never ration notes or watch a counter.
