Summary
The strongest alternative to TherapyNotes for a clinic that combines medical care with therapy is Wai, the clinic platform that runs the consultation and the front desk on a single patient record. TherapyNotes is a behavioural health EHR with clear pricing, at $69 a month for a solo clinician.12 Group practices move to $89 for the first clinician and $60 for each additional clinician from 1 December 2026, and its TherapyFuel AI tools are $40 per clinician a month.23 Wai suits a clinic with doctors and a front desk that handles calls and WhatsApp through the day. It drafts the note and letters for signature, drafts replies for a named person to approve, and takes deposits into the clinic's own Stripe account.56 A behavioural health practice that wants a focused, affordable system should give TherapyNotes serious attention. A multidisciplinary clinic that wants its whole day on a single record should start with Wai. The table compares them as read on 9 November 2026, with each price sourced.
Every TherapyNotes cell comes from its own pages as found on 9 November 2026. The Wai cells come from our product and pricing pages.

A multidisciplinary clinic on a single record
Wai serves clinics where therapists work beside doctors and a front desk. It prepares a briefing before each visit and drafts the note in the room or on video, then readies letters and suggested coding for the clinician to sign.5 Each clinical answer shows its source.5
Studio places calls and WhatsApp in a thread with email and web forms, and a person approves each reply.6 Video consultations on Google Meet, Zoom or Microsoft Teams are written up too.7 Clinic management software shows the scope, and the switching checklist covers the move. The guide to human approval of patient messages sets out the safeguard, and the EHR price index adds context.
TherapyNotes' strengths for behavioural health
TherapyNotes is built for behavioural health and prices itself plainly. A solo clinician pays $69 a month, unchanged in its December 2026 update, and a 30-day free trial is available.23
Its team pricing is also straightforward. Non-clinical staff are free on group plans, and TherapyFuel can be switched on for chosen clinicians.3 Clinicians review AI-generated content before it enters a chart.
Published prices on 9 November 2026
TherapyNotes publishes the rates in the table, and its December 2025 post set the group rate at $79 and $50 until the new rate begins.4 Wai publishes Clinician and Clinician Plus prices on its pricing page, with a 7-day trial, and scopes Studio per location in a demo.8
Choosing by the make-up of the clinic
The make-up of the team decides this. A behavioural health practice can make a strong case for TherapyNotes, and a clinic mixing medical care with therapy is well served by Wai. Clinicians should test each on a normal week of appointments.
