FAQ
Questions teams ask before choosing.

ClinicalScribe for Mental Health is documentation support software designed for psychiatry and therapy workflows. It helps clinicians capture sessions, draft structured notes, and complete follow-up communication while keeping clinician review central.
2. Who is ClinicalScribe for?
It is built for psychiatrists and mental health clinicians who need faster documentation without sacrificing clinical quality, privacy, or therapeutic presence.
3. Can it document long therapy sessions?
Yes. ClinicalScribe is built to support long sessions, including extended psychiatry encounters, with a session limit of up to 8 hours.
4. Can it surface clinical references mid-session?
Yes. Clinical references can be surfaced mid-session to support recall and clinical orientation while you remain the final decision-maker.
5. Can it handle client communication between sessions?
Yes. ClinicalScribe supports between-session patient communication workflows so clinicians can draft and manage follow-up messages efficiently.
6. Does it come with templates?
Yes. ClinicalScribe includes templates and structured documentation patterns to help keep notes consistent across sessions and clinicians.
7. What results do users see?
Across ClinicalScribe users, practices report meaningful time savings and reduced documentation burden. Current platform proof includes 1,000+ clinicians, 100+ clinics, and 100,000+ notes generated. Individual outcomes vary by workflow and adoption.
8. Will using ClinicalScribe damage rapport with my clients?
Not when implemented thoughtfully. Many clinicians use it with minimal disruption by keeping attention on the patient and using post-session review workflows. The tool should support therapeutic presence, not replace it.
9. Is ClinicalScribe compliant with HIPAA, GDPR, and local privacy regulations?
Yes. ClinicalScribe is HIPAA and GDPR compliant, and is designed to support local privacy obligations through configurable data-handling practices in your deployment workflow.
10. Are audio recordings stored?
Recordings are stored user-side in your chosen cloud storage or on your device, based on your setup. They are not required to live in a vendor-controlled central repository.
11. Is my client's personal information safe?
Patient information is protected through a privacy-first architecture, compliance controls, and user-side storage options that give practices tighter control over where sensitive data resides.
12. Is this ethically appropriate for therapy?
It can be, when used as clinician-supervised documentation support with transparent practice policies and professional judgment. Use as documentation support only; not a substitute for clinical judgment.
13. Is ClinicalScribe a diagnostic tool or medical device?
No. ClinicalScribe is not a diagnostic tool and is not positioned as a medical device for autonomous diagnosis or treatment decisions.
14. Will ClinicalScribe handle long therapy sessions reliably?
Yes, the platform is designed for long-form mental health sessions with support up to 8 hours per session, assuming standard device/network performance in your environment.
15. Will this change my therapy style?
It should not require a change in therapeutic style. Most teams adopt ClinicalScribe as an operational layer around existing practice, then tune templates and review habits to fit how they already work.
16. Can we trust ClinicalScribe for high-stakes clinical questions?
Use it as a support tool, not an authority. For high-stakes clinical decisions, clinician judgment, supervision standards, and applicable protocols remain primary. Use as documentation support only; not a substitute for clinical judgment.
