Your session notes are everywhere. Your follow-ups keep slipping.
FollowUpSession is a secure session notebook built for solo therapists — without the billing bloat of an EHR.
No credit card required · No setup fee · 30-day free trial
Sound familiar?
If you're like most solo therapists, your workflow looks something like this.
Notes scattered everywhere
Paper notebook, Notion page, locked Google Doc. You're not sure which one is current.
Follow-ups falling through the cracks
A reminder in Apple Reminders, another in your calendar, one you forgot to set entirely.
EHRs built for billing teams, not you
You looked at SimplePractice. $99/month. Built for a practice manager processing insurance claims. Not for a solo clinician with a notebook.
General apps with no compliance story
You tried Notion or Apple Notes. Then wondered what would happen if your clients' notes were ever breached.
We built FollowUpSession because we couldn't find a tool that solved exactly this — a simple, secure notebook built around the way a solo therapist actually works.
What it does
Everything you need. Nothing you don't.
FollowUpSession is a notebook, not an EHR. Here's exactly what it does.
Client list
Your whole caseload, at a glance
Active, waiting, paused, or discharged — every client's status visible the moment you open the app. No spreadsheet, no searching through paper notes.
- Filter by status in one click
- See session count and last contact date
- Add a new client in under 30 seconds

Follow-up reminders
One click from any session
At the end of every session, set a follow-up in a single click. No switching to Apple Reminders or your calendar. FollowUpSession nudges you when it's time.
- 1 week, 2 weeks, 1 month — or a custom date
- Reminders surface in your Today view, not your inbox
- Never leave a client wondering why they haven't heard from you

- Overdue follow-ups highlighted in red — can't be missed
- Clients who've gone quiet surface automatically
- Log a session or set a follow-up directly from the dashboard

Security & privacy
Your clients' notes are private. We've built it that way from the start.
We know you can't put client data somewhere you don't fully trust. Here's exactly how we protect it.
Encrypted at rest
Column-level encryption via Supabase Vault. Your notes aren't readable — even by us.
Encrypted in transit
TLS 1.3 on every connection. Your data is protected from the moment it leaves your device.
Two-factor authentication
Optional but strongly recommended. Enable it in one click from your account settings.
Automatic session timeout
You're logged out after inactivity — even if you step away and forget.
Row Level Security
Your data is isolated from every other practitioner's at the database level. Not just in the UI — in the database itself.
Audit logging
Every note view and edit is recorded. You can see exactly who accessed what and when.
One-click data export
Download a full ZIP of all your clients and sessions any time. You are never locked in.
Privacy-first analytics
We use Plausible Analytics, not Google Analytics. We do not sell your data or track your clients.
Designed with HIPAA and GDPR in mind
We can't claim certified HIPAA compliance until we've signed a BAA with our infrastructure providers — so we say that honestly. Our design aligns with both frameworks.
