Did you know that 90% of providers work alone or in small group practices? At Alma, we know that community support is invaluable for clinicians, which is why we love being part of events like the Texas Psychological Association Convention. Come say hello at our booth—and for those who can’t join us today, we’re curious to know: How do you build community as a clinician?

In the midst of election season, it's essential to prioritize our mental well-being. Alma's very own Elisabeth Morray recently spoke with CNBC Make It about managing burnout from constant political conversations and news. The article emphasizes that it's okay to opt out of discussions when needed, allowing us to protect our mental health during this intense time. Check out the full story here, and remember to take care of yourself today! https://lnkd.in/etWyi7g9

Curious about value-based care and what it might mean for your clinical practice? If so, we hope you’ll join us for our panel discussion next Wednesday, October 30! During this conversation, we’ll explore how clinicians and payers might work together to create models that benefit everyone involved—as well as how trust can be built between these two groups that shape the mental health care field. RSVP here to claim your spot: https://lnkd.in/gXGCGE3k

As an increasing number of clinicians and insurance plans consider the merits of value-based care models, we recognize that it has the potential to benefit clinicians. But at the heart of these conversations is one essential question: How can value-based care models benefit both mental health care providers *and* the clients they work with? That’s the question we’ll explore in our upcoming panel discussion paid for by Alma with Samuel Nordberg , Jana Dost , Elisabeth Morray , and Dylan Ross, PhD . During this conversation, they’ll discuss models that can help improve client access to high-quality care and how trust can be built between clinicians and insurance payers and share real stories and perspectives from other practicing clinicians.

There’s one subject that can fill even the most confident providers with dread: progress notes. On top of the intensive time requirement, there’s often a lack of clarity on what “good” clinical documentation looks like—which can lead to stress around what insurance companies might look for in the event of an audit. That’s why we’re excited to host a discussion about efficient, stress-free progress notes with Alma 's VP of Clinical, Elisabeth Morray , PhD, Ted Faneuff LISW-S, LMSW, LCSW, MBA , Head of Clinical Operations of Upheal , and Certified Professional Coder Sonda Kunzi

What comes to mind when you think about progress notes? If the answer is an unnecessary source of confusion, spending more time than you’d like to on documentation, or simply “stress”—you’re not alone. That’s what @Alma’s VP of Clinical, Elisabeth Morray , PhD, will be discussing in our upcoming webinar with Ted Faneuff LISW-S, LMSW, LCSW, MBA , Head of Clinical Operations of Upheal and Certified Professional Coder Sonda Kunzi . During the conversation, they’ll share tips for writing documentation that’s compliant and–importantly–clinically beneficial. They’ll also cover methods (both conventional and AI-supported) for incorporating note-taking into your practice in a way that works for you, your clients, and your work-life balance.
