What the pricing really means
At first glance, Sessions Health looks cheaper at $0/month vs $0/month. But sticker price is only part of the story. Look at what is included on the base plan, how many users you get, and whether you need add-ons to get the features you actually need. The $99/month plan that requires $200 in add-ons is actually more expensive than the $250/month plan that includes everything.
Where Grow Therapy wins
- Free platform with full EHR, telehealth, and managed insurance billing
- 100+ insurance plan partnerships including Medicaid in select states
- AI-assisted documentation built in
- 4.7/5 on Trustpilot with 7,500+ reviews — more than most EHRs
Where Sessions Health wins
- Free tier with up to 3 active clients lets you test the entire platform with real workflows before paying anything
- Capterra rating of 4.9 across 113 reviews is the highest in the behavioral health EHR category, with 98% positive sentiment
- Customer support gets constant praise in reviews for fast responses and actually listening to feature requests
- At $39/mo for the first practitioner and $29/mo for each additional, it undercuts SimplePractice and TherapyNotes significantly
- Unlimited admin staff included at no extra charge, which matters for growing group practices
Where Grow Therapy falls short
- No presence on G2 or Capterra makes independent comparison harder
- Commission model means lower per-session take-home than billing yourself
- Similar to Headway — you trade independence for convenience
- Not designed for group practices
Where Sessions Health falls short
- No native mobile app, so you are using a browser on your phone which is workable but not ideal between sessions
- Telehealth is a $10/mo add-on per practitioner, while competitors like Blueprint include it in the base price
- No e-prescribing support, so psychiatrists or prescribers need a separate tool
- Smaller review count (113) compared to SimplePractice (2,900+) means less community knowledge and fewer third-party guides
