This feature enables seamless internal communication inside TherapyNotes, sharing the same inbox as Client Messaging!
Viewing Messages
Along the top navigation bar, you will see two different inboxes. You can toggle between internal and patient messages.
To select an inbox to view a message, click on the inbox you’d like to read a message from.
Staff Groups
- Staff groups are automatically created if there are two or more of each user type (Example: 2 billers or 2 clinicians)
-
Groups include All Staff, All Clinicians, All Billers, All Schedulers, as well as a Clinicians list if you have multiple locations where clinicians work at Clinicians -
Quick Tip: To expand the group name - click the carat to your groups and see who is in them while sending a message. Expanding the group is currently a one-time action, and users cannot collapse the group.
Create a New Message
- Click the + New button on the top right to create a new message.
- Like client messaging, you can type an individual’s name you’d like to message or select a staff group.
- Create a subject line for the message.
- Type the message in the message body.
-
When you’re ready to send your message, click Send Message.
Responding to Messages
When a user receives a new message, the icon in header will display the number of new messages next to it. Clicking on the icon will bring the user back to their inbox to view the new message. New Threads will have a dot indicator to the left of them and new messages.
Editing a Thread Header

Archiving and Deleting Threads
If you would like to archive or delete a thread, click inside the thread you’d like to take action on.
You'll see two options on the lower right-hand side: archive or delete.
When selecting delete, you’ll receive a secondary confirmation that you want to delete the message.
If you select archive, you will receive a secondary confirmation that you’d like to archive the messages.
