## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-09-27 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> Here's how I'd think about it - the answer splits by whether you want video *plus* your whole practice run in one place, or just secure video bolted onto what you already use.
> 
> ## All-in-one (EHR + notes + billing + video) - what most therapists should pick
> 
> **1. SimplePractice** - The default recommendation for solo and small group private practice. Best-polished client portal, strong insurance billing/claims, huge integration and support ecosystem, so it's the one your clients will find easiest. The catch: telehealth is *not* on the $49/mo Starter plan - you need Essential ($79) or Plus ($99). ([pricing comparison](https://www.mentalyc.com/blog/simplepractice-vs-therapynotes), [SimplePractice](https://www.simplepractice.com/resource/best-ehr-software/))
> 
> **2. TherapyNotes** - What I'd pick if documentation quality and value matter more than UI polish. Built by/for behavioral health, excellent note templates, and critically it **includes telehealth on every plan** (~$69/mo solo); only group sessions or HD/screen-share need the $15/clinician Premium add-on. Cheaper than SimplePractice once you actually need video. ([comparison](https://www.choosingtherapy.com/therapynotes-vs-simple
