MY-THERAPY-SUITE vs MEDESK

A UK talk-therapy alternative to Medesk

Medesk is a UK-marketed practice management platform for private clinics and GPs, strong on reporting, analytics and medical workflows across several disciplines. My-Therapy-Suite is built only for UK talk therapy, with the everyday tools and AI inside one flat price, by a husband-and-wife team with a practising therapist in the clinic every week.

Last verified 20-Jun-2026

01

Built for talk therapy, not for the data-driven medical clinic.

Medesk is built for private clinics and GPs, with ready-made solutions across GP, allied health and other verticals, deep reporting and analytics, e-prescribing and inventory control. That depth suits a clinic run on data. My-Therapy-Suite owns the UK talk-therapy workflow completely, with session-note structures, validated outcome measures and supervision controls shaped around counsellors and psychotherapists, and none of the medical or stock-control machinery to work around.

02

Designed to notice things for you.

My-Therapy-Suite was built fresh in 2026 to do the noticing for you. The diary surfaces what is billed, what has a note linked and what is still open, and you log in to today's diary, the tasks that need you this week, your most-used shortcuts and your monthly trends at a glance. The insight finds you, rather than waiting in a report you have to open.

03

Simple flat pricing, not a quote-based build.

Medesk prices on a quote basis that scales with clinic size and the modules you switch on. My-Therapy-Suite is one published price, £19 per clinician per month billed annually, VAT and AI included, with nothing to assemble and no quote to negotiate.

04

A practising therapist in the clinic every week.

Medesk is a private-clinic platform with deep analytics aimed at clinic managers. My-Therapy-Suite is built by Inés Olivares Carretero, a practising UK therapist, and her husband Brecht Nys. Every feature passes through Inés's own caseload of talking-therapy clients before it ships, and when you email about a missing feature, one of them reads it.

REASON 01

Designed for talk therapy, not for the multi-vertical clinic.

Medesk is a capable platform for private clinics, with ready-made setups for GPs, allied health and other practitioners, more than forty pre-built reports, e-prescribing, Healthcode billing and inventory control. For a clinic manager who wants to run on data and analytics, that depth is a real advantage.

My-Therapy-Suite is built for one job: running a UK mental-health private practice. The vocabulary on every screen, the outcome measures shipped by default, and the supervision controls are shaped around UK counsellors and psychotherapists, not around stock control, prescribing and cross-vertical reporting.

My-Therapy-Suite is built for one job: running a UK mental-health private practice.

REASON 02

The insight should find you, not wait in a report.

Medesk's strength is its reporting layer: deep, configurable and powerful for a manager who will use it. The trade-off is that the insight tends to live in reports you open rather than in the day in front of you.

My-Therapy-Suite was built fresh in 2026 to surface what needs you without being asked. The diary shows what is billed, noted and still open, and your key trends sit on the dashboard the moment you log in.

The platform should notice things, so the therapist does not have to.

REASON 03

One published price, not a quote.

Medesk's quote-based model flexes to clinic size and feature mix, which makes sense for varied medical practices but means the price you pay depends on a conversation.

My-Therapy-Suite is £19 per clinician per month, published and the same for everyone, with transcription and AI notes already inside it.

You should be able to see the price before you talk to anyone.

REASON 04

Built by people you can reach.

Medesk is an established platform with a long history and a strong analytics reputation, marketed specifically for UK private practice.

My-Therapy-Suite is built by Inés Olivares Carretero, a practising UK therapist, and her husband Brecht Nys, who spent a decade leading digital product development in international banking before building the platform with her. Every feature passes through Inés's own practice before it ships.

When you email about a missing feature, Inés or Brecht reads it.

When Medesk is the better fit for you

Medesk is a deep, analytics-led platform for private clinics. Three buyer profiles where Medesk is genuinely the better choice for the practice in question:

You run a private GP or medical clinic.

If you prescribe, manage stock and consumables, or run general-medical workflows, Medesk is built for that and a talk-therapy platform is not.

You run your practice on reporting and analytics.

Medesk's pre-built reports on conversion, revenue per clinician and retention are a genuine strength for a clinic manager who wants to manage on data rather than intuition.

You bill UK insurers directly via Healthcode.

Medesk handles billing through Healthcode. My-Therapy-Suite's Healthcode integration is in development. If a meaningful share of your invoices flow through Healthcode today, Medesk is shipped and we are not yet.

Switching from Medesk

Most therapists are taking new bookings on My-Therapy-Suite within an afternoon of starting their trial. Here is how a switch from Medesk usually runs:

  1. 1Start your My-Therapy-Suite free trial. No credit card required.
  2. 2Set up your practice. Add your details, import existing clients if you have them, set your availability.
  3. 3Connect your calendar (Google or Microsoft). Two-way sync starts immediately.
  4. 4Focus on clients. Reminders, invoicing, documentation. It all happens. You just do what you do best.

Questions UK therapists ask

Is Medesk a good fit for UK therapists?

It can be, and Medesk is marketed for UK private practice. But it is built for private clinics and GPs across several disciplines, with much of its depth in reporting, e-prescribing and inventory that talk therapists do not use, and it prices on a quote basis. If your practice is purely UK talk therapy, you will get more from a tool built only for that.

How does pricing compare?

My-Therapy-Suite starts at £19 per clinician per month billed annually (£24 monthly), VAT and AI included, at one published price.

Medesk uses a quote-based model in GBP that scales with clinic size and feature mix, with low-volume entry options and higher costs as the practice grows. Verified on Medesk's site on 20-Jun-2026.

Where is my client data stored with each platform?

My-Therapy-Suite stores all client data on UK infrastructure under UK GDPR, with the ICO as the regulator and no region to choose.

Medesk is marketed for UK practice and hosts in UK or EU data centres. Confirm the current data-centre location and Data Processing Agreement on Medesk's own site for your DPIA.

What about Healthcode and UK insurer billing?

Medesk handles UK insurer billing through Healthcode.

My-Therapy-Suite's Healthcode integration is in development. If a meaningful share of your invoices flow through Healthcode today, Medesk is shipped and we are not yet.

Does either platform ship validated routine outcome measures and AI session notes?

My-Therapy-Suite ships 20+ validated routine outcome measures with auto-scoring, including PHQ-9 and GAD-7, plus transcription, AI-drafted notes and an AI template builder, all in the £19 base price.

Medesk provides customisable templates and reporting; pre-built validated UK talk-therapy ROMs and a built-in AI scribe are not surfaced as core features on the public site.
