Your client lives on the island. You get the lighthouse.
The Lighthouse is the therapist's side of L.A.N.C.E. — an EHR that's pleasant at 8am, connected live to your client's phone, with telehealth built for how therapy actually works. Built by a 25-year LPC who got tired of software that fights back.
Runs on XAI Therapy™: every insight traces to your client’s own entries and a named framework, you review everything before it touches care, and the record belongs to them. Glass, not black box →
The task list writes itself from real events — sign the note and its task resolves on its own.
The live bridge
Said in session. Done by Tuesday. Visible Wednesday.
A six-character code — read aloud, once — pairs your client's app to your cockpit. From then on, the space between sessions stops being a black box.
🔗 Push any of the 96 tools
Search the full L.A.N.C.E. library, add your instructions, and it lands warmly on their Home screen — with delivery receipts: Delivered → Seen → Done ✓.
🌌 The Constellation
Every paired client at a glance: progress ring, 14-day mood sparkline, sync recency — and which act of the story they're in. "Act III · past the reveal" is clinical context. Bring it to session.
🔒 Clinical guardrails
Pause a contraindicated tool remotely, adjust gamification intensity per client, and personalize every safety surface to your practice and jurisdiction — you own the clinical decisions, the apps carry them out.
📅 Confirmations that close themselves
One tap sends a session-confirm card to their phone; their "I'll be there" flips your calendar chip. Unpaired clients get an email link instead.
Not a mockup
This is the actual software. Here is every screen that matters.
No marketing renders on this page. These are real captures of the running app — the same build that sits open on my desk during a clinical day.
The bridge. Every paired client, live from whichever world they're in — which act of the story they've reached, when they last synced, and what came back. Push a tool, send a note, or pause a contraindicated one. Receipts run Delivered → Seen → Done. And when an assessment answer needs a human — a PHQ-9 item 9 above zero — it is flagged for your eyes, with the words "worth raising in the next session."All 96 tools, on your side of the glass. The exact library your client has. Run opens any tool full-fidelity in a sandboxed phone frame — demo it before you assign it, or lead it live in session. Assign puts it on their phone with your instructions attached. No PDF handouts. No "did you get a chance to look at that?"A to-do list you never write. Every task on this screen generated itself from a real event — an unsigned note, an unconfirmed session, a client whose app hasn't synced in five days. Sign the note and the task resolves itself. The AUTO badge means nobody typed it.
The outcome loop
You'll walk into session knowing more than they remember.
Most practices run on a client's recollection of a fortnight, filtered through the mood they're in when they sit down. This one doesn't. Between one session and the next, the work itself reports back — and it arrives before you do.
📈 What they did
Which tools they opened, how many times, and how far they got. Completion isn't self-reported — the tool records its own finish.
🕰️ When they did it
The most clinically useful signal in the whole product: did they do the homework on Tuesday, or an hour before session? Avoidance has a timestamp now.
🤝 Whether they did it together
In Driftwood, couples and families meet at a place on the island. You see whether they showed up for each other, or whether one of them went alone.
📉 The shape of the fortnight
A 14-day mood sparkline, assessment scores over time, streaks and lapses — the run-up to this session, not a snapshot of this morning.
Therapists using this keep saying a version of the same thing: the first ten minutes disappear. You don't spend them reconstructing the week. You open with "I saw you did the reframe on Tuesday night at eleven — what happened Tuesday?"
Which creates a problem worth having. There is now more genuine material in a session than an hour can hold. More than one clinician has started blocking two.
Trajectories, not vibes. Progress per client over time, so "are we actually getting anywhere?" has an answer you can show them — and so can you, to a payer, a supervisor, or a treatment team.
Straight comparison
What this does that your current stack doesn't.
vs. your EHR
Your EHR knows what you billed. It has no idea what happened between Tuesday and Tuesday. This one is wired to the client's actual practice, so the record includes the work, not just the appointment.
vs. Zoom
Zoom can show your face. It can't open a grounding exercise on both screens at once, breathe 4-7-8 in sync, soften both videos for a regulation moment, or watch a client's finale with them on the day they finish.
vs. homework on paper
A worksheet goes in a bag and is never seen again. A pushed tool lands on the phone that is already in their hand, and tells you whether it was opened.
vs. every wellness app
Consumer apps answer to the user. This answers to you. You choose the tools, you set the crisis protocol for your jurisdiction, you can pause anything contraindicated — and crisis tools can never be locked or gamified.
The session room
Telehealth built for therapy, not for meetings.
Your client clicks one link — no install, no account. A gentle preflight ("We can see you ✓"), a waiting room, and you're in.
🎬 Therapy Scenes
One tap, synced to both screens: Faces for the conversation, Tool to open any of the 96 tools together, Breathe for 4-7-8 in sync, Pause to soften both videos for a regulation moment.
🕯️ The Ending
When a client finishes all 31 challenges, watch the story's finale together, live, in session. Termination deserves a ritual. Now it has one.
✒️ The scribe
Live transcription while you talk. On hangup: a drafted note, tools you mentioned offered as one-tap assignments, then sign & file. Under a minute from goodbye to done.
🏝️ The island, beamed in
For clients walking the island in VR, the room can direct the experience live — including breathing with them, breath for breath.
The daily driver
An EHR you'd tell a colleague about.
☀️ Today writes your to-do list
Unsigned note → a task appears. Sign it → the task resolves itself. Session tomorrow unconfirmed → a nudge. You never manage the list; it manages itself from real events.
📊 The clinical stack
PHQ-9, GAD-7 and PCL-5 assessments, progress charts, session search across your whole history, practice analytics, and caseload-wide progress views that surface who needs you next.
🧰 The full library, runnable
Every client tool runs inside your app in a sandboxed phone frame — demo it before you assign it, or lead it live in session.
🗂️ Your data stays yours
Everything lives in human-readable files on your machine — no vendor database, no export hostage-taking. Back up by copying a folder. Why that matters more than it sounds →
Currently in private beta alongside the client app, ahead of a security & compliance hardening phase before any real client data. Want in when it opens? Say hello.
Two apps, one island
Your client gets a story. You get your evenings back.
A boy nobody kept built an island that keeps everyone.
The opening of L.A.N.C.E. is a living picture book — fifteen painted chapters, narrated like a film, every frame moving. This is the art your clients meet in the first minute.
Gullhaven, 1929 — a boy nobody keptHe built a way out of what they threw awayThe crossing — the emptiest part of the mapHis first friend — and lit its eyesEvery island is somebody's whole heartThe keeper, in his own image
