To choose a secure AI tool for your private practice, prioritize tools that comply with Canadian privacy laws (PHIPA/PIPEDA), offer secure data storage in Canada, and give you full control over your notes. Ensure the tool is designed for healthcare use, provides transparency on how the AI works, and supports client consent and disclosure.

Yes. Smart Notes automatically generates a complete transcription of your sessions, but your professional expertise always comes first. You have full control to review, edit, and finalize every note. This control ensures your client notes always reflect your clinical reasoning and your client’s unique details before saving to their file.

AI tools for SOAP notes can help therapists stay present during sessions by automating note-taking, which eases the documentation process. These tools can organize key themes, observations, and interventions into the SOAP format, reducing the burden of writing and retyping information. This allows therapists to focus on clients, reflect on progress, and prepare for future sessions more effectively.
