Is Theralyn HIPAA-compliant?

We are not currently HIPAA-certified. ABA, OT, and speech therapy in school and outpatient settings frequently falls outside HIPAA's covered entity definition — but we take data security seriously regardless. All data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256). Each clinic's data is logically isolated and never shared with third parties. HIPAA BAA support is on our near-term roadmap.

Which therapy types does Theralyn support?

Theralyn supports Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), Occupational Therapy (OT), Speech-Language Pathology (SLP), and Physical Therapy (PT) — each with discipline-specific data collection built in, like DTT trial data and ABC behavior logging for ABA, or range-of-motion and pain-scale tracking for PT. Play Therapy, CBT, and other modalities are also supported with standard session tracking, with specialized templates for those on the roadmap.

How much will Theralyn cost?

Theralyn is completely free during the current early-access period. When we launch paid plans, early access members get a founding discount — pricing will start around $49/month for small clinics and $99/month for teams up to 10 therapists. You'll receive 30 days' notice before any changes, and you can cancel anytime. No credit card is required to sign up.

Do parents need to create an account to view session reports?

No — and that's by design. Parents receive a secure, time-limited link (valid 7 days by default). They click it and instantly see a beautifully formatted progress report. No app download, no account creation, no friction.

Can independent therapists use Theralyn, or is it only for clinics?

Both. Independent practitioners get their own private workspace the moment they register — no clinic required. Clinic owners can additionally create an organization account and invite multiple therapists, with org-level reporting and activity libraries.

Does Theralyn support supervisor review of reports?

Yes. Reports written by staff therapists automatically route to the clinic admin for review and cosign before they can be finalized — a built-in supervisory check. It's a proxy-supervisor model today (there's no dedicated BCBA/clinical-supervisor role yet), but it gives clinic owners visibility before a report goes out.

How is my session and client data secured?

All data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256). Each organization's data is logically isolated — queries are scoped by organization ID at the database level, making cross-tenant data access architecturally impossible, not just policy-restricted.

When will Theralyn officially launch?

Early access is open now — you can create your account today and start planning sessions immediately. We're continuing to roll out new features based on direct feedback from early clinics, and founding member pricing is locked in for everyone who signs up during this period.

What is ABC Data in ABA Therapy? Antecedent-Behavior-Consequence Explained

ABC data collection is a foundational tool in Applied Behavior Analysis for conducting informal functional assessments. By recording the context around a behavior, therapists and BCBAs can identify patterns that reveal why the behavior is occurring — whether the child is seeking attention, trying to escape a demand, accessing a preferred item, or responding to sensory stimulation.

The antecedent is anything that immediately preceded the behavior: a specific instruction given, a transition, a peer interaction, or a change in environment. The behavior is the observable action itself, described in concrete, measurable terms (not 'meltdown' but 'threw materials, hit table, screamed for >60 seconds'). The consequence is what immediately followed: did the demand get removed? Did the child receive attention? Was access to a preferred item given?

Over multiple observations, patterns emerge. If a behavior consistently follows a demand and results in demand removal, the function is likely escape. This directly informs the Behavior Intervention Plan (BIP) — teaching an alternative behavior that serves the same function.

In practice

Therapists log ABC data during or immediately after each incident. A session might include 2–5 ABC observations alongside skill acquisition data. Patterns are reviewed across sessions and shared with the supervising BCBA to inform assessment and intervention decisions.

Key facts

A = Antecedent: what happened immediately before the behavior

B = Behavior: the observable action, described in concrete terms

C = Consequence: what happened immediately after

Used to identify behavioral function: attention, escape, access, sensory

How Theralyn helps

Theralyn's session execution screen includes an ABC data section where therapists can log antecedents, behaviors, and consequences during or after each incident. All entries are compiled into the session report automatically.

Frequently asked questions

What is ABC Data (Antecedent-Behavior-Consequence)?

ABC data is a behavior observation method used in ABA therapy to record the antecedent (what happened before the behavior), the behavior itself, and the consequence (what happened after). It is used to identify the function — or purpose — of a problem behavior.
