## What is PracticeHaven?

PracticeHaven is the calm companion to your counselling practice. It takes the after-hours paperwork off your plate so you can be present in the room and still leave on time.

Run the session. We'll hold the notes.

WHAT IT DOES
- Today, at a glance. Your schedule, the session that's next, and what still needs a summary.
- Capture by voice, on your device. Speech is transcribed on the iPhone itself. The audio never leaves your phone and is never stored.
- AI drafts, you decide. The summary is written for you in a clear clinical structure. Nothing enters the record until you read it and approve it. There is no auto-approve.
- The client's file, wherever you are. Profile, consents, documents and recent summaries, read-only and encrypted.

BUILT FOR COUNSELLING, NOT ADAPTED TO IT
PracticeHaven is made for practices that sit with grief, trauma and depression. Gentle risk screening, a summary that quotes the words behind a risk rating instead of smoothing them over, and a crisis line that is always one tap away.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
- On-device transcription; audio is deleted the moment it becomes text.
- Records encrypted field by field, with keys held outside the database.
- Face ID on every open, an app-switcher screen that hides content, and multi-factor sign-in.
- An append-only audit log of every view, edit and export.
- Built on infrastructure independently certified to ISO 27001 and SOC 2, in Australian regions where it counts.

The phone is a companion to the PracticeHaven web app, where you build intake forms, manage your calendar and export records.

PracticeHaven is a product of The Useful Apps Pty Ltd.

Outcome measures (K10, PHQ-9, GAD-7) with progress trends.
Session summaries now cite the transcript lines behind each section, so you can check the evidence before approving.
GP and Mental Health Treatment Plan review letters, drafted from your approved summaries.
Referral tracking: sessions used, review due, and expiry.
Session prep brief before each appointment.
Safety plans (Stanley-Brown), written with the client and printable for them to take away.

Refinements throughout: the app now uses its brand typeface, supports larger text sizes, names the model behind each draft, and adds haptic feedback.

### 1.1 — 2026-07-24

A smoother daily flow for clinicians: the dashboard now shows today's appointments and summaries awaiting your approval, sessions can be started straight from a booking, appointments can be cancelled with a reason, and drafts can be edited or regenerated before approval. Clearer error states throughout, and reliability fixes for appointment types and reminder timing.
