AI that finishes the note, not just a template.
TherapyNotes gives you a template editor and dropdowns. You still write every note from scratch. Mediyn drafts the full note from your session — DAP, SOAP, intake, treatment plan — modality-aware, in your tone, ready to sign.

Patient reports significant improvement in sleep quality since medication adjustment last session. Describes reduced frequency of intrusive thoughts, particularly around work-related triggers.
Affect notably brighter — more engaged, sustained eye contact. PHQ-9 score decreased from 18 to 14, now in the moderate range. Patient demonstrated strong recall of CBT techniques from previous session.
Current treatment plan is progressing well. Recommend continuing medication at current dose. Assign cognitive restructuring worksheet to build on the thought record work.
On-device redaction, not just cloud compliance.
TherapyNotes is HIPAA-compliant, with all the right BAAs in place. Mediyn redacts PHI on the device — names, addresses, dates, identifiers — before any data leaves the phone. On-device architecture, not just a compliance checkbox.

How have you been feeling since we adjusted the medication?
Much better. My mother Sarah ChenNAME noticed I've been sleeping through the night. We moved to 142 Oak StreetADDRESS last month. Next check-in is March 15thDATE.
Eligibility at booking. ERAs auto-posted.
TherapyNotes' billing module is functional but requires manual steps for eligibility checks and ERA reconciliation. Mediyn auto-runs eligibility on booking, auto-posts ERAs to the patient ledger, and tracks claim status without you logging into a payer portal.

Why therapists switched from TherapyNotes.
“TherapyNotes was reliable. It was also a tool from a different decade. The notes still got written by us, the portal still felt like 2008. The first week on Mediyn felt like upgrading from a flip phone.”
— Dr. Yuna Watanabe · PsyD · Clinic Director, Boston
“Migration from TherapyNotes was the easiest part — 200 patients moved over in an afternoon. Knocking a star because the Google Calendar sync was wonky the first couple weeks. Working fine now and the notes are night and day.”
— Riley Hoffman · AMFT · Group Practice, Sacramento
“TherapyNotes pricing felt fair until I added up the seat costs across my practice. Mediyn is per-seat with AI documentation built in. We're saving real money AND I stopped writing notes at home.”
— Dr. Hannah Reyes · LCSW · Private Practice, San Diego
What therapists ask before switching from TherapyNotes.
How does Mediyn's AI compare to writing notes the TherapyNotes way?
TherapyNotes gives you a template editor and dropdowns. You still write every note from scratch. Mediyn drafts the full note from your session — DAP, SOAP, intake, treatment plan — in your tone, ready to sign with minimal editing.
Will my TherapyNotes data export cleanly?
Yes. TherapyNotes supports full data export and our migration team handles the import. Patient charts, signed notes, claim history, scheduling, and templates all transfer. TherapyNotes stays read-only for 30 days as a fallback.
TherapyNotes is cheap. Is Mediyn worth the upgrade?
TherapyNotes is cheap on paper. Once you add the time you spend writing notes by hand, the cost looks different. Most therapists who switch save 4-6 hours a week. At any therapist's hourly rate, the math is fast.
Does Mediyn support my modality?
Yes — Mediyn's AI is trained on session structure across CBT, DBT, EMDR, IFS, EFT, ACT, psychodynamic, somatic, and more. Notes match the modality you practice, including modality-specific worksheets.
What about insurance billing?
Included on every Mediyn plan — 837P, 835, 270/271, 276/277. You'll typically save time on payer enrollment, ERA reconciliation, and denial follow-up versus TherapyNotes' billing module.
Will my patient portal users have to re-register?
No. Existing portal users are migrated with magic-link onboarding — they click a link, no password reset. Full appointment and superbill history preserved.
TherapyNotes' compliance is solid. Why trust Mediyn?
Mediyn is HIPAA, SOC 2 Type II certified, with on-device PHI redaction. Compliance isn't a checkbox here — it's the architecture.
Your evenings belong to you. Not your notes.
Join the therapists who stopped staying late for documentation and started focusing on what matters — their patients.
