For therapists and the therapeutic care team
Extend understanding beyond the therapy session.
Psychologists, psychotherapists, counsellors and other therapeutic professionals: support patient engagement, follow relevant between-session experiences and access patient-shared information that can inform therapeutic work. Social workers and community services are not yet a role on the care team; we are asking what they need first.
Why this exists
You see your client for an hour, perhaps once a week. The other 167 hours — the practice they tried, the difficult night, the medication change their doctor made — reach you only if they remember to mention it.
Synapse Cura exists to connect the work in the room with everything around it, so more of each session can go to the therapeutic work itself.
It is your own practice workspace first — practices, between-session check-ins, session preparation, change over time — whether or not your client's doctor is on Synapse Cura.
What it addresses
The problems as they happen today, and what Synapse Cura does about each one. Where the answer is not built yet, it says so.
- Between sessions: the work in the room is disconnected from the week that follows.
You direct the between-session work: practices with a frequency, duration and note. They come back with the client's own before-and-after ratings and what they found hard, and the session summary gathers it before you meet. Nothing is scored or interpreted for you.
Ready for the pilot- Between sessions: you see an hour a week and nothing of the other 167.
Hard moments, sleep, mood and the client's reflections reach you when the client chooses to share them, as a picture over time for better conversations. Check-ins are optional for the client; a gap is never read as deterioration, and nobody is watching.
Ready for the pilot- During sessions: a new client has told their story many times and dreads telling it again.
Their history — what happened, what has been tried, what helps, what to avoid — is there before the first session, in their words, with the parts they chose to share with you.
Ready for the pilot- Across the team: the doctor changed the medication and you hear about it weeks later, if at all.
Medication changes and what the client reported after a dose are visible when the client shares them, and the clinicians' room lets you and the doctor keep working notes on the same case.
Ready for the pilot- During sessions: a diagnosis arrives with the client and nobody knows what it rested on.
Every diagnosis records its basis, since when the picture was observed, how many contacts, and the circumstances at the time, so you can weigh a label given in a crisis against one that held for a year.
Ready for the pilot- Across the team: nobody is sure who is responsible for what.
Goals agreed with the client have a named holder and a review date; decisions in the clinicians' room have a follow-up owner; the care team has a lead. Confidentiality holds: a summary layer for the team, detail only where the client shares it, and your process notes stay outside Synapse Cura.
In clinical review- Across the team: work, housing, money and family shape the therapy and stay invisible.
The client describes their circumstances once and shares each part with the professionals they choose. Social workers are not yet a role on the team; we are asking what they need first.
In clinical review
What it offers
Session summary in one click
In clinical reviewEverything your client shares with you since your last session, in one place: their notes for the session, practices with their own ratings, record updates and life changes. Every line links to its source. It lists; it doesn't interpret.
Between-session practices
Ready for the pilotAssign practices with a frequency, duration and note. See completion and your client's before-and-after ratings and notes.
Your exercise library
Ready for the pilotWrite your own exercises, keep them private or publish them under your name after peer review. Every practice carries an honest evidence label.
Start from your client's story
Ready for the pilotRead their history — what's happened, what's been tried, what helps — before the first session, so they don't have to retell it.
Know the person
In clinical reviewThe life and context your client chose to share with you, in their own words, with how it has changed over time.
Work with the medical side
Ready for the pilotA clinicians' room for working notes with your client's doctor; decisions recorded where your client sees them, with a named follow-up owner.
Bring in colleagues
Ready for the pilotSuggest a colleague — even one not yet on Synapse Cura. Your client approves and chooses what they see, and you can follow the referral through to their first session.
Therapeutic goals and progress
PlannedStructured goals you and your client set together, with progress over time.
Ready for the pilot: built and tested, in use once the pilot starts. In clinical review: built, and relied on only after our clinical adviser signs it off. Planned: direction, not yet available. What isn't done yet.
What stays yours
Your judgement, your therapeutic relationship and your own professional notes. Synapse Cura doesn't interpret, score or advise, and your private process notes stay outside it.
Free for independent clinicians during the pilot.
Why it matters for patient outcomes
Sessions that build on what happened in between.
Our mission is to improve patient outcomes — an ambition we intend to demonstrate, not simply promise.
