Built to Support the People Who Support Others
We make software for therapists, not hospitals. Every decision starts with one question: does this give a practitioner back an hour, or take one away.

A practice management platform made only for mental health work
PsychDesk handles scheduling, session notes, billing, client records, and the day to day operations of running a therapy practice, so a therapist, psychologist, or counsellor can spend less time on admin and more time with clients.
Appointment scheduling with calendar sync
Clinical documentation, SOAP notes and treatment plans
Client and case management
Billing and GST compliant invoicing
Intake forms, worksheets and template library
Online and in-person session support
Everything is connected, so a session, its note, and its invoice are never three separate, disconnected records.
It started with evenings that belonged to paperwork
We sat with therapists as they closed out their week, and the pattern was the same everywhere. The clinical work ended at 7pm. The formatting, the invoice chasing, the reconciling of a calendar against a notebook against a payment app carried on well past it.
Hospital systems assume an admin department. General small business software assumes a product, not a therapeutic relationship. Both ask a practitioner to translate their work into a shape the software understands.
What we did instead
PsychDesk started from the opposite direction: begin with a therapist's actual week, and build only what removes work from it.
Where we're headed, and why
Give every practitioner the operational foundation of a large clinic.
To give mental health professionals the operational foundation to run a sustainable practice, so administrative work never comes at the cost of client care.
Practice size should never decide the quality of your tools.
A future where every therapist, regardless of practice size, has access to the same quality of practice management infrastructure as a large hospital system, without the cost or complexity that comes with it.
Six convictions that shape every release
Expertise belongs with clients
Therapists should spend their training on people, not on formatting notes or chasing invoices.
Scale is not a prerequisite
Software built for hospitals is not automatically right for a solo practitioner or a small clinic. Good tools should not require size.
Records deserve the same care as the room
Client data deserves the same care in how it is stored and protected as it does in the room where it was shared.
Simplicity is a feature
A practice management tool should be usable on day one, not after a training program.
Built for how practice works in India
GST invoicing, UPI payments, and local compliance are part of the product, not a US platform with the currency changed.
Built with therapists, not just for them
Every release is shaped by practitioners who use PsychDesk on a real caseload, in real weeks, with real clients waiting.
One platform, three very different days
Solo practitioners
Independent practices that need everything in one place, without the overhead of enterprise software.
Group practices
Multiple therapists sharing a name and a referral pipeline, who need a shared system without losing individual client privacy.
Clinics and organizations
Admin staff, supervisors, and formal reporting needs, with role based access and oversight built in from the start.
Three choices we made on purpose
Built for mental health practice specifically
Not a general medical EHR with a therapy label added on. Scheduling, documentation, and billing reflect how therapy sessions actually work, including recurring sessions and session types a general practice tool does not account for.
Built India first
GST invoicing, UPI payments, and Indian data protection requirements are part of the product, not an afterthought for a platform designed around another country's rules.
One platform at every size
Priced and structured for practices from one practitioner to a full clinic on the same underlying platform, so growing your practice never means migrating to new software.
We build software that gets out of the way
A feature earns its place by removing work from a therapist's day, not by adding a setting to configure. When we have to choose between more capability and more simplicity, we choose simplicity, because complexity in a practice management tool is complexity a therapist has to carry into every session.
Speed is clinical safety
A note that takes four clicks instead of fourteen gets written the same day, while the session is still accurate in memory.
Default over configure
We ship sensible defaults for therapy practice rather than a settings panel that asks you to design your own system.
Quiet by design
No gamified dashboards, no engagement nudges. The best session with PsychDesk is the one you barely notice.
Specifics, not reassurance language
Client records are among the most sensitive information a practice holds, and we treat them that way. Here is exactly how.
Encryption
Client records are encrypted in transit with TLS and at rest with AES-256. Access to the application requires authentication, and every session is scoped to the practice that owns the record.
Who can access data
Inside your practice, access follows the role you assign. At PsychDesk, engineers do not browse client records as part of normal work. Production access is limited to a small named group, requires a specific reason such as a support request you raise, and is logged.
Backups
Encrypted backups run automatically on a daily schedule with point-in-time recovery, stored separately from the primary database and restore-tested on a regular cadence.
If you leave
Your data is yours. You can export clients, notes, and invoices in standard formats at any time, including after you cancel. On request we permanently delete your practice data, and backups age out on their retention cycle.
Confirm each statement above against your live infrastructure before publishing, and adjust the wording to match exactly what you can stand behind.
Held to HIPAA, GDPR and India's DPDP Act
Three jurisdictions, one standard of care for client records. Here is exactly what each framework means for your practice on PsychDesk.
HIPAA-aligned safeguards
Administrative, physical, and technical safeguards modelled on the HIPAA Security Rule: unique logins, role-scoped access, audit logging, and encryption of PHI at rest and in transit. BAA available for US-based practices on request.
GDPR ready
Lawful-basis records, data subject access and erasure workflows, processor commitments through a signed DPA, and breach notification within 72 hours. You stay the controller; we act only on your instructions.
DPDP Act, 2023 (India)
Your practice is the Data Fiduciary and PsychDesk is the Data Processor. Consent capture at intake, purpose limitation, retention controls, and grievance-redressal support are built into the product for Indian practices.
Encryption everywhere
TLS 1.2+ in transit and AES-256 at rest, with encrypted, separately stored daily backups and point-in-time recovery.
Signed DPA and processor terms available before you migrate a single client
Role-based access control with full audit trail on every record view
Export your complete data set in standard formats, at any time
Named production access only, logged and reason-bound
Annual restore testing on encrypted backups
Documentation pack for procurement and security reviews on request
We only name a framework we can evidence. Ask us for the security and compliance documentation pack and we will send exactly what we hold, nothing implied, nothing inflated.
A small team, close to the work
PsychDesk is built by a small product and engineering team in India that works directly with practising therapists, group practices, and clinics.
I started PsychDesk after four years spent close to India's mental health system, watching the same problem repeat across solo practices and clinics: the people doing the caring were losing hours every week to work that had nothing to do with care. PsychDesk is our answer to that. It's a practice management and EHR platform built for how mental health professionals in India actually work, not adapted from a template built for a different country's insurance system and a different country's clients. I didn't want to build another SaaS tool. I wanted to build the thing that gives a therapist their evenings back.
Healthcare software is often burdened by legacy complexity and bloat. From day one, we engineered PsychDesk with an obsessive focus on performance, zero-friction workflows, and bank-grade end-to-end security. We build systems that are rock-solid, privacy-first, and lightning-fast—ensuring clinicians can trust their tools completely without spending cognitive energy debugging their software.
