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 Halaxy wins
- Core platform is genuinely free with unlimited practitioners, locations, and appointments, which no competitor matches
- 700+ built-in clinical templates means you likely do not need to build forms from scratch for your specialty
- No caps on file storage or patient records, so you never hit a wall as your practice grows
- Pay-as-you-go model means you only spend money on SMS, telehealth, or AI features you actually use
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 Halaxy falls short
- Not HIPAA-certified for US users, which makes it a non-starter for US-based practices handling protected health information
- Credit-based pricing for SMS, telehealth, and AI features makes monthly costs unpredictable and hard to budget
- Australian-focused platform with limited US insurance billing, clearinghouse connections, or superbill generation
- Thin review presence on major platforms like G2 and Capterra, so independent validation is harder to find
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
