Invoicing and payments, handled.
Billing is one of the most uncomfortable intersections in a therapist's professional life — where the relational meets the transactional. Kindred Practice handles it cleanly, reliably, and mostly invisibly, so it rarely becomes a source of stress, awkwardness, or administrative weight.
The business of therapy, handled with care.
Most billing tools treat invoicing as a purely administrative function. And technically, it is. But for therapists, the experience of billing — chasing payments, having difficult conversations about outstanding balances, reconciling finances at the end of an already full week — carries a relational weight that other professions don't share.
Kindred Practice takes as much of that weight off your plate as possible. Not by ignoring the business reality, but by handling it in the background, cleanly and without drama, so that your relationship with your clients is never pulled in the direction of a transaction.
Everything private practice billing requires
Automated invoicing
Invoices are generated and sent automatically after sessions, based on the rates and rules you've set. No manual entry, no end-of-month scramble. Billing happens in the background, every time.
Payment processing
Secure, integrated payment processing directly within Kindred Practice. Clients pay by credit card through the platform without requiring a separate system or a separate conversation.
Custom rates
Set different rates for different session types, clients, or arrangements — individual, couples, family, group, sliding scale. Whatever your rate structure, the system reflects it accurately.
Payment reminders
Automated reminders go out to clients with outstanding balances, on a schedule you define. The system follows up so you don't have to have the conversation unless you want to.
Credit tracking
Track client credits, prepaid sessions, and balances accurately, without manual reconciliation. The numbers are always current and always right.
Financial reporting
A clear view of your revenue, outstanding balances, payment history, and practice financials — when you want it, without having to generate it manually. Paige can surface specific figures or answer questions about your finances directly.
Payroll reporting
For group practices: consolidated payroll reporting across multiple practitioners, integrated with the billing system. One view of what each clinician has earned, without manual calculation.
Kept separate — so it stays that way.
One of the quieter design decisions in Kindred Practice is where billing lives in relation to the clinical work. The answer is: close enough to be seamless, far enough to stay out of the therapy room.
Invoicing happens automatically after a session is marked complete. Payment reminders go out without you having to initiate them. Outstanding balances are visible when you want to see them and absent when you don't. The financial side of your practice is handled — not hidden, but not intruding either.
Your relationship with your clients is relational. Kindred Practice keeps it that way.
