Today I’m talking with Brad Pliner, CEO and co-founder of TherapyNotes, one of the most popular electronic health records (EHR) for mental health practitioners. We talk all about EHR’s in general along with some of the features that make TherapyNotes particularly useful for testing psychologists. I’ve used TherapyNotes for over five years and definitely learned new things during our conversation today. Here are a few things you’ll take away from this episode:

  • Why an EHR just makes sense in today’s practices
  • Security of the cloud and where your data is actually stored
  • How an EHR can help you submit in or out of network insurance claims with literally one click
  • How an EHR is particularly helpful for testing psychologists
  • Cool Things Mentioned in This Episode

      About Dr. Jeremy Sharp

      I’m a licensed psychologist and Clinical Director at the Colorado Center for Assessment & Counseling, a private practice that I founded in 2009 and grew to include seven licensed clinicians, three clinicians in training, and a full administrative staff. I earned my undergraduate degree in Experimental Psychology from the University of South Carolina before getting my Master’s and PhD in Counseling Psychology from Colorado State University. These days, I specialize in psychological and neuropsychological evaluation with kids and adolescents.

      As the host of the Testing Psychologist Podcast, I provide private practice consulting for psychologists and other mental health professionals who want to start or grow psychological testing services in their practices. I live in Fort Collins, Colorado with my wife (also a therapist) and two young kids.
