Assessments in Theracharts

The same validated measures you already use — PHQ-9, GAD-7, PCL-5, and 100+ more — assigned in a tap, auto-scored with their validated severity bands, and charted over time so you read the clinical story instead of doing the arithmetic.

From assignment to insight

Assign in a tapPick a measure from the client's chart and assign it. Set a cadence — every session, weekly, monthly — and Theracharts handles the reminders. The client completes it on their secure portal or mobile app.

Auto-scored, with validated bandsThe moment a client submits, the score is calculated and the instrument's validated severity band is applied. A PHQ-9 of 14 shows as moderate depression, not just “14.” No hand-scoring, no spreadsheets.

Reliable change, flaggedTheracharts knows each measure's reliable-change threshold, so a 7-point PHQ-9 drop reads as real improvement while a 2-point wobble doesn't get over-interpreted. The clinically meaningful moves surface on their own.

Trends, not snapshotsEvery measure gets its own chart across the whole course of treatment. Direction across three or more administrations is the story — sustained progress, plateaus worth raising, reversals worth catching early.

Built for measurement-based care

Measurement-based care — routinely measuring symptoms and using the results to guide treatment — is one of the most robust findings in psychotherapy research. Theracharts makes it the path of least resistance: assign a measure once, and the scoring, banding, reliable-change flag, and trend chart all happen for you, every time.

It flows into your EHR

Theracharts is the measurement layer next to your EHR, not a replacement for it. When you finish a session, generate a Clinical Update — a short, data-grounded narrative of assessment trends, reliable change, and goal progress since your last note — and paste it straight into your EHR's session note. The measurement lives here; the chart of record stays where it always was.

Frequently asked questions

Does Theracharts score assessments automatically?

Yes. Every assessment is scored the moment a client submits it, with the instrument's validated severity bands applied — no hand-scoring, no lookup tables. You see the band, not just the raw number.

Can I track assessment scores over time?

Yes. Each measure gets its own trend chart across every administration, with reliable-change thresholds applied so you can see at a glance whether a change is real improvement or measurement noise.

How do I send an assessment to a client?

Assign it from the client's chart in a tap. The client completes it on their secure portal or mobile app, and the scored result lands back in their chart automatically — ready to review before or during session.

Is outcome tracking free?

Yes. Outcome tracking, 100+ validated assessments, and trend charts are free on every plan, up to 3 active clients. Paid plans add unlimited clients, AI insights, and Clinical Updates for your EHR.
