### "Game Changer "

October 9, 2024

5.0

I absolutely love Young Sidekick AI! It has given me so much time back, allowing me to focus on my clients without worrying about the little details. The treatment plans are top-notch and incredibly thorough. It's been a game-changer for my practice!

Pros

What I like most about Young Sidekick AI is its ability to create top-quality treatment plans. It gives me back valuable time to focus on my clients and their needs while handling the administrative side seamlessly. The level of detail and personalization in the treatment plans really stands out, making my work more efficient and allowing me to deliver better care. It feels like having a reliable, time-saving assistant in my corner!

Cons

The only downside for me is the pricing and point system, which can be a bit confusing and limiting at times. I wish it were more straightforward or offered more flexibility. That being said, the quality of service and the time

### "Can't reach customer service for days. "

January 6, 2025

1.0

At first they were excellent. But their customer service is terrible. If I can't get my notes done because of a mistake on their end, I'm up shlt creek. But they won't refund my subscription. No one responds. I don't get paid if my notes aren't in on time. And if I can't reach them for help, my notes aren't in and I don't get paid. Their customer service is the worst.

Pros

The interface is good, but that's about it. Oh, you can use Audacity to speed up your sessions and save on minutes.

Cons

Customer service. I have a deadline to get my notes in like most therapists. I messaged and emailed over and over for help because I could not get more minutes. No one responded. I had to find another system to use. Now they won't refund my money.

### "YUNG Sidekick, the documentation assistant you need"

October 8, 2024

5.0

The customer service has been highly responsive and quick to act. I use this product every day at work and it has greatly improved the timeliness of my treatment notes.

Pros

Quick and easy to use. Allows dictation of sessions, in session recording-to-dictation, and upload of session audio files. They continue to make improvements, are responsive to feedback, and is budget friendly.

Cons

Because they continue to make improvements and updates, most of the cons have been addressed and changed. The current con I deal with is that the AI has a tendency to change gender pronouns to they/them, which often requires editing. On the positive side, I have been told that pronouns are being addressed in a future update.

### "Best app for any mental health provider"

October 8, 2024

5.0

This app is the best has enhanced my work so I can really focus on the client.

Pros

This app saves me time! Now I can go home and actually not have more work to finish! It confirms the diagnosis and treatment plans that I assessed when working with clients. I have tried other apps like this but Yung Sidekick is the most user-friendly one I have ever tried!! I HIGHLY recommend it!

Cons

I often forget to stop recording when I am busy. I wish there was a timer I could set to turn it off.

Yung Sidekick is amazing and I recommend it to anyone that dislikes writing notes, like I do. It's a time an life safer!!!

Pros

The brilliant notes that it writes for me as the Therapist, it captures the client's issues in categories and basically writes the Treatment Plan!

Cons

Sometimes it has glitches- not a big deal.

### "Excellent Product"

October 8, 2024

5.0

It has been worth the investment as it has salvaged so much time and supported me in staying compliant with documentation requirements.

Pros

Versatile input and output options that are totally HIPPA compliant.

Cons

Inability to see treatment plan and record at the same time, but the recent update repaired that issue.

### "Young Sidekick -- Positive experience "

October 10, 2024

5.0

Positive. It really helps with assessments.

Pros

It makes notes so much easier to organize and complete.

Cons

Sometimes a little spotty, like it will say recording but won't save but that is not the norm. I wish there was a way to also record notes for case management or just meetings on the same format.

### "Great investment!"

October 10, 2024

4.0

Overall, it makes progress notes significantly easier and well-organized.

Pros

I love how it creates a synopsis of each client as it stores each note for a specific client. I really enjoy the psychological profile it creates for each individual client through the accumulation of notes as well as the individualized treatment plans.

Cons

The only disadvantage is the fact that every dictation is automatically charged as 15mins even if the dictation was less time.

### "Excellent time saving tool!"

October 9, 2024

5.0

Very positive. I've told dozens and dozens of people about it!

Pros

It saves so much time and gives me peace of mind that my notes are excellent.

Cons

Sometimes it mis-hears things that then become part of the core understanding of the client. I don't know if/how to change that.

### "A must need time saver "

October 8, 2024

5.0

I have loved my experience. They have been easy to use and I have used them almost daily.

Pros

I love how easy it is to use! It has helped me write thoughtful, clinically sounding notes and has greatly reduced my time writing notes and doing documentation.

Cons

I would like for me to be able to add my forms/documents/intakes so that the notes can fit my own customized forms.

### "Making clinical notes easy"

October 8, 2024

5.0

Pros

Yung Sidekick has made writing clinical notes quick and easy. I like that I can dictate a recap of the session and the system will generate notes and summaries for me. It provides suggestions for diagnosis and treatment plans as well.

Cons

The billing was confusing at first with 15 minute blocks of time.
