OverviewFor clinical psychology

For the clinical psychologist whose report is the work.

Mood, anxiety, trauma, worry and functional scales on the same record as the interview transcript and the formulation. The draft assembles from what's there. The clinician edits and signs.

Why BrainScribe for clinical psychology

Four things this changes about the assessment day.

01

Scales on the channel that fits the client.

PHQ-9, GAD-7, PSWQ and ISI are sent by secure self-completion link before the session. The client completes them on their phone. Responses arrive scored, on the assessment record, before the clinician opens the file.

02

Repeat-administration that respects measurement.

When a client returns for review, the platform computes reliable-change (RCI) and minimum clinically important difference (MCID) against published references. The descriptor in the draft reflects clinical change, not raw arithmetic.

03

One record across the case.

Scales, observations, interview transcript, formulation notes and the draft report sit on the same record, in the same browser tab. Cross-references stay live as the case develops.

04

Output tuned to the audience.

The same record can produce a GP letter, an NDIS functional report, a specialist referral, or a brief clinical note. The clinician sets the audience and depth; the draft re-composes against the existing record.

Scales and tests you'll use

What's live in the library today.

BrainScribe ships with 24 reference scales as of the current beta release. The list below names the ones that map directly onto clinical-psychology workflows. Performance tests for capacity and functional assessment are available through the Testing tier.

Mood and anxiety

PHQ-9Depression severity, with Item 9 suicide alert and RCI/MCID for review
GAD-7Generalised anxiety severity, with reliable-change for repeat administrations
PSWQPenn State Worry Questionnaire, GAD-specific worry
CSDDCornell Scale for Depression in Dementia, where cognitive concern is present

Sleep, fatigue and functional

ISIInsomnia Severity Index, with cut-points for clinical insomnia
ESSEpworth Sleepiness Scale, with driving-safety alert at threshold
FSSFatigue Severity Scale, cross-condition fatigue burden
MFSMental Fatigue Scale, post-concussive and chronic fatigue contexts
Lawton-IADL · FAQInstrumental activities of daily living, informant-rated

Carer and informant

ZBI-12Zarit Burden Interview, for carers in capacity or dementia workups
IQCODE-SFInformant cognitive decline screen, where premorbid functioning is needed

Performance tests including the WAIS, CVLT-3, HVLT-R, Trail Making, COWAT and Boston Naming are available through the Testing tier for capacity and NDIS functional referrals. See the performance-test catalogue.

A typical workflow

From referral to signed report.

01

Open the client file.

A new assessment is created against an existing client, or a new patient record is opened. Referrer details, presenting concerns and any prior reports attach to the same record.

02

Send the self-report battery by secure link.

PHQ-9, GAD-7, PSWQ, ISI and the functional scales are sent by self-completion link before the appointment. Responses arrive scored, banded and traceable. Risk-flagged completions surface in the dashboard immediately.

03

Hold the session, with the transcript on the record.

The clinical interview is captured with identified speakers. Structured sections, presenting concerns, history, mental state and provisional impression, draft from the transcript and the clinician's typed notes.

04

Compose the draft. Review. Sign.

The draft assembles from the scales, the transcript and the formulation. Each section is REVIEW_REQUIRED until approved. Audience and depth are set by the clinician — GP letter, NDIS functional, specialist referral. Export to DOCX or PDF.

What it isn't

The boundaries that stay locked.

  • Not a diagnostic tool. Scales are scored against published norms. Interpretation is drafted. The clinician decides.
  • Not a replacement for clinical judgement. The draft summarises what's on the record. Formulation belongs to the clinician.
  • Not a clinical scribe. Transcription is one input on the record, not the product.
  • Not a medical device. BrainScribe is not registered as a medical device under Australian law.
  • Not a messaging platform. The clinician sends the report. BrainScribe stops at the artefact.
