Overview

Valant is a comprehensive, cloud-based electronic health record (EHR) and practice management solution built exclusively for behavioral health practices. Founded in 2005 by brothers David Lischner, a psychiatrist, and Ben Lischner, a software developer, the platform was created out of frustration with generic EHRs that failed to address the unique needs of mental health providers.

Key Features

The platform offers an all-in-one solution that includes clinical documentation, ePrescribing with EPCS capabilities, telehealth, billing, scheduling, and a patient portal (MYIO). Valant distinguishes itself through specialty-specific features like 100+ clinical templates designed for evidence-based therapies (DBT, CBT, MFT, TMS), 80+ built-in outcome measures that auto-score and track patient progress.

Best For

Valant serves over 22,000 behavioral health professionals across all 50 states and is designed for psychiatrists, psychiatric nurse practitioners, psychologists, therapists, and counselors working in solo practices, small groups, or large multi-provider organizations.

Built for: Counseling, Marriage and Family Therapy, Psychiatry, Psychology, Social Work — Large (26-100 providers), Medium (6-25 providers), Small (2-5 providers), Solo Practice

What Users Say

"I chose Valant way back in 2013 because it was web-based and had an integrated suite of functions, and because the company was founded by a psychiatrist. The system has truly exceeded my expectations."
Stephen S. Owner 5/5
