Get your time back, and financial peace of mind
Handling the money side of your practice alone costs you hours every month, and the stress of getting it wrong costs you more. Our software and team of experts keep you organized, informed, and compliant year-round, so you get that time back to put back into yourself or your practice.
Every day, see what you earn and can write off
Income and expenses land in your books on their own, sorted into categories built for therapy practices. Keep your practice money separate with a Heard Bank account,* or connect the account you already use, so nothing gets missed at tax time.
Every week, see how your practice is doing
See what you earned and what you kept, against the goals you set. Every write off we track lowers what you owe, so you watch your costs become tax savings.
Every month, see where your money goes
A bookkeeper closes your books, so you can see how the month went and what you kept. Your allocation guide confirms what to set aside for taxes, savings, and time off. If you are set up as an S corp, you can run payroll right through Heard.
Every quarter, stay ahead of your tax payments
Your estimate comes from your real books instead of a rule of thumb, so you pay what you owe. We show you what the IRS wants, what your state wants, and exactly how to pay. If you are licensed in more than one state, we help with that too.
Every year, file on time, with maximized deductions
We collect what we need, comb through your year for the write offs therapists miss, and file federal and state on your behalf. You avoid the April scramble and any surprise bills.
Any time of the year, get support from a real person
Message our team of tax and accounting experts who only work with therapy practices, and get a real answer in one business day. That includes whether an S corp is worth it for you, and the help to elect when it is.
Keep your finances on track at every stage
Running a practice can be expensive and draining. We help you keep more of your hard-earned money at every stage by maximizing your tax deductions and exploring tax optimization strategies like S corp election.

Free financial resources for therapists and wellness practitioners
What is Heard?
Heard is the only financial management software built for private practice owners. We empower therapists and wellness practitioners like you as business owners with easy-to-use financial software and access to bookkeeping and tax professionals, so you can focus on helping your clients.
How does Heard pricing work?
We offer subscription-based pricing with both monthly and annual billing options. Annual subscribers save 15% compared to monthly billing. We also offer an annual plan with monthly payments, which requires a one-year commitment.
We have two plans to choose from: Our Essential Plan is designed for solo practice owners who are LLCs or Sole Proprietors. Our Premium Plan is built for S Corporations and/or group practices, includes payroll for up to one user, with additional employees costing $6 per month each.
There’s a one-time setup fee of $99 per month of catch-up bookkeeping required. Our pricing plans don’t include third-party government fees and taxes, our Financial Advisory add-on services, or business license filing fees which vary by location, though these additional fees are typically tax-deductible.
Can I cancel any time?
Monthly plan subscribers can cancel at any time, while annual plan subscribers commit to the full year upfront with all subscription and one-time fees being non-refundable.

What's the difference between Heard and QuickBooks?
QuickBooks is a good DIY software choice for therapists and wellness practitioners who are looking to do their own bookkeeping. To upgrade to their full-service bookkeeping option, however, you can expect to pay $300/mo or more.
In addition to cost, the other difference is that Heard is built specifically for therapists and wellness practitioners, whereas Quickbooks is industry-agnostic. Specializing in private practices means we understand your business.
What's the difference between Heard and a local CPA?
A local CPA is a good option for therapists and wellness practitioners who are looking for a more personalized experience with regular meetings to review their financials.
With that said, you can expect to pay $500/mo or more working with a local CPA.
What does my bookkeeping team do?
When you first join Heard, your bookkeeping team will complete your catch up bookkeeping for the current tax year. Then moving forward, they will categorize your transactions and reconcile your accounts every month.
They also make any necessary adjustments to your books to ensure they are tax-compliant and account for any outside expenditures, not being run through your business bank accounts.
Your bookkeeping team may need your input on reviewing transactions to ensure proper categorizations. We also may need you to upload your monthly statements so we can reconcile your accounts.
You will be able to message your bookkeeping team to get any questions answered within 1-2 business days. Every question will be answered by a real person. Our aim is to support and educate you throughout the bookkeeping and accounting process.
Who does Heard work and not work with?
We work exclusively with health and wellness private practices, including: psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, mental health counselors, professional counselors, marriage and family therapists, psychiatric nurse practitioners, physical therapists, speech & language pathologists, audiologists, occupational therapists, dietitians and nutritionists, massage therapists, chiropractors, and life coaches.
We are able to support therapists and wellness practitioners who have other streams of income (e.g. coaching, consulting).
We do not work with non-health practices, practices based outside the United States, practices with multiple owners, and practices taxed as C corporations.
