Is Jane App only for Canadian therapists?

No. Jane App serves practitioners in Canada, the US, and other markets. It has particularly strong adoption in Canada. PsyPlanner is available to therapists globally with HIPAA-compliant infrastructure for US-based practices.

How does PsyPlanner pricing compare to Jane App?

PsyPlanner is $20/month (or $120/year) with a free tier for up to 5 clients. Jane App starts around $54/month per practitioner with no permanent free plan, making PsyPlanner meaningfully less expensive for a solo therapy practice.

Does Jane App have PHQ-9 outcome tracking?

Jane App supports custom forms and charting but does not include built-in PHQ-9 and GAD-7 longitudinal outcome tracking with automatic scoring and trend charts. PsyPlanner includes this as a native clinical feature.

Which is better for a one-person therapy practice?

For a solo mental health practice, PsyPlanner is typically the better fit — lower cost, therapy-specific workflows, and built-in outcome tracking. Jane App makes more sense if your practice is multi-disciplinary or you need allied health clinic features.

Can I use PsyPlanner if I am based in Canada?

Yes. PsyPlanner is a web-based platform available to therapists in Canada and internationally. Review your provincial privacy requirements alongside our security documentation.
