TheraSoar vs. HelloNote
Choosing the Right Software for Therapists
When selecting practice management software, therapists need tools that are simple, efficient, and tailored to their workflow.

TheraSoar was built specifically for therapists who want a better, faster, and friendlier way to manage notes, appointments, and patient progress.

HelloNote, while used by a range of clinicians, focuses heavily on billing, claims, and insurance integration features that may be unnecessary or even overwhelming for private-pay therapists or those just starting out.

Here’s how TheraSoar compares to HelloNote, focusing on what therapists care about most:

SOAP Notes
TheraSoar offers AI supported note templates that are easy to customize. The interface is intentionally minimal, helping therapists focus on client care instead of administrative overhead. Because TheraSoar is built for private-pay providers, there’s no need to navigate insurance-driven documentation or compliance prompts.

HelloNote provides a robust SOAP note system designed to meet strict documentation and billing requirements. This is ideal for practices that need to support insurance claims, but it can feel overly complex or burdensome for solo practitioners who don’t bill insurance.

Audio Dictation
TheraSoar includes built-in audio dictation, allowing therapists to record their notes and have them transcribed directly within the platform. This feature saves time, especially after back-to-back sessions, and helps maintain the natural flow of documentation without manual typing. It’s ideal for therapists who prefer to verbalize thoughts immediately after a session.

HelloNote also offers an integrated note-transcription/voice-to-text service; therapists can dictate notes and have them transcribed within the EMR.

Session Scheduler
TheraSoar provides a clean and intuitive scheduling experience. You can easily view upcoming sessions, block out time, and manage recurring appointments—all in one place. The interface is distraction-free and suited for therapists who manage their own calendars or work in small teams.

HelloNote features a full scheduling system with integration to billing and claims.

Paperless Intake Forms
TheraSoar allows therapists to send digital intake forms that clients can fill out securely online. These forms are customizable and automatically populate the client’s profile, reducing repetitive data entry. This feature streamlines the onboarding process for both the therapist and the client.

HelloNote provides secure consent/intake forms that work for both insurance and self-pay cases.

Progress Tracking
TheraSoar makes it easy to set and track client goals with straightforward progress notes. The platform is designed to keep documentation concise while still being clinically useful. You can quickly reference client outcomes without getting bogged down in excessive fields.

HelloNote offers in-depth progress tracking, which may be useful for insurance audits but can feel rigid or overly detailed for therapists who don't require such depth.

User Experience
TheraSoar’s interface is modern, clean, and designed for speed. It’s easy to learn and requires minimal training. Everything you need is right where you expect it to be—without any extras you don’t.

HelloNote offers a more robust but less intuitive interface. It's geared toward multidisciplinary teams and may require more time to fully understand and use efficiently.

Frequently Asked Questions
Looking for the right practice management solution? This FAQ answers common questions about how TheraSoar compares to other platforms like HelloNote.
Which is more affordable for growing practices?

For teams adding several clinicians, TheraSoar’s flat per-user rate (from $8–$25) is usually cheaper than HelloNote’s base-plus-$15 pricing.

Does either platform support group therapy scheduling and documentation?

Yes. TheraSoar supports mental-health-oriented group session documentation with templates aligned to counseling workflows. HelloNote also allows group notes, but its tools were originally built around rehab billing rules, such as concurrent and co-treatment scenarios.

Choosing the right tool depends on whether your practice needs therapy group support or insurance-aligned rehab documentation.

What makes TheraSoar stand out from other therapy EHRs?

TheraSoar combines broad specialty support, mobile accessibility, flexible pricing, 24/7 customer support, and AI-enhanced tools into one modern platform. It is built to scale with your practice, whether you're working solo or managing a full clinical team.

Make the switch to a platform that truly works with you. Try TheraSoar and feel the difference in clarity, customization, and clinical confidence.

How is user data protected in TheraSoar and HelloNote?

HelloNote documents current HIPAA compliance and implements secure storage, encrypted transmissions, and controlled user access.

TheraSoar uses the same security practices (encryption, secure servers, role-based permissions) but is still undergoing formal HIPAA attestation.

Which EHR is easier to use for therapists transitioning from paper records?

Some users transitioning from paper records report that TheraSoar’s clean interface and AI features help them adapt quickly. HelloNote also provides structured workflows and tutorials, though its rehab-style navigation requires more onboarding time for mental health providers.

Clinicians are encouraged to try both via free demos or trials, which TheraSoar offers for 14 days.

Can I use either platform for outcome tracking or progress measurement?

Yes. Both TheraSoar and HelloNote support outcome tracking and progress measurement, but they differ in approach. TheraSoar allows therapists to track client progress using customizable templates and note fields, but it does not include a built-in library of standardized outcome measures.

HelloNote, on the other hand, offers discipline-specific goal templates and structured tracking tools, particularly useful for physical, occupational, and speech therapy.
