Electronic notes for therapists and mental health professionals made easy
Writing patient/client notes in an electronic/health medical record (EMR/EHR) should be simple and lightweight. With that in mind, we designed our mental health charting tool to be clean and user-friendly, yet highly functional for private practices. That way therapists can use our mental health documentation software to dive right into their notes without distraction.
Note Types
We offer several types of therapy notes to choose from:
- Intake notes
- Follow-up/SOAP notes
- Free text notes
- Rating scale notes
- Labs notes
- Vitals notes
- and, premium subscribers can create custom note templates (more info below)
Plus, any note can be “cloned” for speedy note writing. For example, an intake note can be cloned to quickly create your first follow-up/SOAP note – we take the O, A, and P (sorry S sections!) from your intake and clone it into the follow-up note to keep you moving quickly.
Here is a glimpse of what the assessment and plan areas look like in a SOAP note. You can quickly sign up for a free account and begin touring our note features for yourself.
Save drafts or sign your notes quickly using our “Chart Shortcut” option. Also, navigate to other areas faster within the patient’s chart.
You can copy-forward current medications to your notes with just one click.
Custom note templates 
Premium Luminello subscribers have the ability to create their own unique custom note templates, to be superimposed on top of any of our basic templates (intake, follow-up, and free text). Start by giving your template a name in our form builder tool, add your own custom fields as checkboxes, dropdowns, multiple-choice, free text, and more, then save your new custom template.
When you go to compose a note, pick which template you wish to use, and your custom questions and answer choices will be displayed. Click away instead of typing! Then, when you save the note, the responses you have inputted will be beautifully displayed in the saved note. Plus, you can create as many templates as you want.
In addition, our custom questionnaires allow therapists and mental health clinicians to collect info from their patients/clients and then send that info directly into an intake or follow-up note. For example, your intake questionnaires can pre-fill an intake note with a click!
