The Clinician ADHD Play

Practice admin is harder than clinical work when your brain works differently.

A consulting + software model for allied health practitioners with ADHD. Four sessions. A purpose-built desktop app. Systems that work with the brain, not against it.

Don't sell productivity. Sell systems that eliminate willpower.

Who we serve

Neurodivergent allied health practitioners in private practice.

Solo and small practices (1-3 clinicians). AHPRA-registered. Clinically competent. Administratively drowning.

84%

of Australian allied health professionals report burnout — admin burden is the primary driver.

20%

of nurses suspect they have ADHD — only 4% are diagnosed. A 5x gap between suspicion and diagnosis.

0

practice management platforms market neurodivergent-friendly features. Cliniko, Halaxy, Power Diary — none.

0

AHPRA accommodations exist for neurodivergent practitioners. The compliance framework assumes neurotypical executive function.

The problem

Four pain points that every ADHD clinician knows.

These aren't productivity failures. They're executive function mismatches with systems designed for neurotypical brains.

Email Paralysis

Inbox grows to 200+ unread. Important referrals get buried. Replying feels overwhelming, so nothing gets replied to. Revenue sits in unreturned phone calls.

Time Blindness

Sessions run over. Notes don't get written until the weekend. Invoices go out weeks late. Every hour of free clinical work is an hour of unpaid admin debt.

Compliance Anxiety

AHPRA CPD requirements. Insurance renewals. Supervision logs. Mandatory reporting. A fog of "I'm probably behind on something" that never lifts.

Decision Fatigue

Every admin task requires a decision about how to do it, because no system exists. Filing a document means deciding where it goes. Every. Single. Time.

What they've already tried: Notion, Todoist, Trello (abandoned after setup). Time management coaching (helpful for mindset, nothing changes in the practice). Hiring a VA (works if systems exist, but without systems the VA can't help). Willpower and shame — the default strategy.

Phase A — The Practice Audit

Find the leaks. Build the system. Graduate in four sessions.

A structured consulting engagement, not ongoing coaching. The app does the remembering. You do the configuring. Then you leave.

Free: Clarity Call (30 min)

Determine fit. Identify the top 3 pain points. Recommend the right package. Zero commitment.

The Entry Point

The Clarity Call costs the practitioner nothing but 30 minutes. It gives them a concrete list of what's broken and what to fix first — regardless of whether they proceed. This is the "no-brainer" wedge.

Pre-Session

Practice Setup Assessment

25-question scored assessment sent 48 hours before Session 1. Covers email management, scheduling, documentation, billing, compliance. Produces a domain-scored profile that identifies exactly where the admin system is failing.

Day 1 Deliverable

Workflow Audit

Map the entire practice flow: intake → session → notes → billing → follow-up. Identify time leaks, decision bottlenecks, and the 3 highest-ROI automation opportunities.

The Tool — Practice Hub

A desktop app built for how ADHD brains actually work.

Not another SaaS subscription. A local-first app installed on Day 1. Connects to Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace. Zero clinical data leaves the machine.

Email Triage Panel

Keyboard-driven inbox processing (j/k/d/o/r/f). Batch mode. Reply templates. Process 200 emails in 15 minutes. No context switching.

Session Timer

Colour-phased countdown. Green → amber → red. Visible from across the room. No more sessions running 20 minutes over.

Schedule Viewer

Today's calendar at a glance. Client context displayed before they walk in. Buffer blocks visible. No surprises.

Post-Session Checklist

Auto-prompts after every session: notes written? Invoice sent? Follow-up booked? Risk flagged? Mandatory reporting considered? Nothing falls through.

Client Cards

Per-client profiles with session history, tasks, notes, tags. One click to see everything about a client. No searching through files.

Daily Progress

Session streak counter. Admin completion score. Visual ring that fills as you clear tasks. Dopamine feedback loops designed for the ADHD brain.

Local-first. No cloud. No subscriptions. All data stored in encrypted SQLite on the practitioner's machine. AHPRA-compliant by design — clinical data never leaves the device. The practitioner owns their data, their app, their system.

Phase B — The Full Setup

Four sessions. App configured. Systems installed. Then you graduate.

This is consulting, not coaching. The app holds the system. The practitioner maintains it in 15 minutes per week. No ongoing dependency.

Session 1: Discovery & Audit

Install Practice Hub. Connect email + calendar. Complete workflow audit. Identify top 3 quick wins.

Session 2: Email & Communication

Configure triage panel. Install reply templates. Set batch schedule. Turn off push notifications. Process 10 real emails live.

Session 3: Scheduling & Sessions

Configure session timer and colour phases. Set up post-session checklist. Build per-client notes. Calendar display tuning.

Session 4: Integration & Graduation

Connect practice management system. Set compliance reminders (AHPRA, CPD, insurance). Walk through weekly maintenance routine. Graduate.

What they tried before

  • Weekly motivation sessions
  • "Try to remember to..."
  • Behaviour change focus
  • Ongoing coaching dependency
  • Generic productivity advice

What we do instead

  • Install the app, configure it once
  • App automates triage, timers, checklists
  • Environment design via software
  • Graduation after 4 sessions
  • ADHD-specific tool built for allied health
What changes

Measurable outcomes, not motivational quotes.

By graduation, these are the benchmarks. Not aspirations — system outputs.

< 15 min

Inbox processing

Full inbox triage using keyboard shortcuts and batch mode. Down from "I'll get to it this weekend."

48 hrs

Max email age

Zero emails older than 48 hours requiring a response. Referrals returned same-day.

15 min

Post-session notes

Notes completed within 15 minutes of session end, prompted by the post-session checklist. Down from "next weekend."

3 hrs/wk

Total admin time

Down from 8-12 hours per week. The system eliminates decision overhead and context-switching costs.

100%

Compliance tracked

AHPRA renewal, insurance, CPD, supervision — all with advance calendar reminders. No more 11pm panic.

15 min/wk

Maintenance

Weekly maintenance routine. Not a lifestyle change. A 15-minute check-in with the app.

Pricing

Three tiers. Transparent. GST inclusive.

Priced at the cost of 2-4 client sessions. The ROI is measured in hours reclaimed per week, every week, permanently.

Package Sessions Price Includes
Clarity Call 1 × 30 min Free Determine fit, identify top 3 pain points, package recommendation
Quick Start 2 × 50 min $500 Email triage + session management setup. App + templates included.
Full Setup 4 × 50 min $990 Complete audit → automation. Assessment, all templates, 30-day follow-up, app included.
Group Cohort 6 × 90 min $800/person 6 practitioners max. Peer accountability + extended curriculum. Group chat included.

Future add-on: Monthly Retainer ($300-500/month) — Monthly 30-minute check-in, workflow optimisation, new feature rollout, compliance monitoring. Not launched yet — validate the 4-session model first, then layer the recurring revenue.

Unit Economics

Full Setup: $990 for ~3.5 hours of delivery + prep. Effective rate: ~$280/hr. Group Cohort: $4,800 revenue for 9 hours of delivery. Effective rate: ~$533/hr. Both exceed standard psychology session rates ($200-260/hr).

Scaling Path

10 Full Setup clients/month = $9,900/month. 2 Group Cohorts/quarter = $9,600/quarter. Layer monthly retainers as clients graduate. Target: $15K-20K/month within 12 months.

The Moat

Once they're in, they don't leave.

This isn't a subscription they can cancel. It's infrastructure they've built their practice on.

Clinical Data Gravity

Session logs, client cards, notes, task history — all in the local SQLite database. Migrating mid-treatment is unthinkable. The data compounds monthly.

AHPRA Retention Mandate

Adult records: 7 years. Children: until they turn 25. The compliance framework forces data persistence. The app becomes the archive.

ADHD Workflow Lock-In

Once an ADHD brain finds a system that works, changing it has disproportionate cost. The keyboard shortcuts, the colour cues, the routine — they become muscle memory. Switching tools means rebuilding from scratch.

Consulting Relationship

You're not a vendor. You're the person who fixed their practice. When they need the retainer, the VA onboarding, the bookkeeper referral — you're the first call.

The cross-sell flywheel: Clinician discovers Practice Hub → Full Setup consulting → Monthly retainer → Refers athlete clients to MPM courses → Refers parents to Rising workshops → Uses Senaptec for sports psych clients. The consulting relationship becomes the top-of-funnel for the entire RAW Edge ecosystem.

Why this wins

Nobody else is doing this. Literally.

The competitive landscape is empty. No practice management platform markets to neurodivergent clinicians. No AI scribe addresses the full admin stack. No consultant combines ADHD lived experience with AHPRA credentials and purpose-built software.

Cliniko / Halaxy / Power Diary

Practice management platforms. Good at what they do. Zero ADHD-specific features. No workflow consulting. No environmental design. They assume you can maintain habits through willpower.

Heidi / Tortus (AI Scribes)

Solve documentation. Don't solve email paralysis, time blindness, compliance tracking, or decision fatigue. They're one tool in a broken system.

ADHD Coaches

Ongoing sessions, mindset focus, general productivity. No software delivery. No graduation model. No allied health context. No AHPRA compliance expertise.

Practice Hub + Consulting

AHPRA psychologist with lived ADHD experience delivers a purpose-built app through structured consulting with a graduation model. Local-first. Evidence-backed. Australia-wide. Nobody else has all four.

Launch Sequence

Five moves to go live.

The app is built. The methodology is documented. The pricing is set. What's left is packaging and outreach.

  1. Build the service page — rawedge.au/services/practice-setup. Copy exists in SERVICE_PAGE_COPY.md. Deploy via Elementor.
  2. Identify 5 target practitioners — Perth psychologists with known ADHD. Professional network, LinkedIn, AHPRA register. Personal outreach, not cold email.
  3. Run 5 free Clarity Calls — Validate the pain points. Refine the pitch. Convert 2-3 into Full Setup clients.
  4. Deliver 3 Full Setups — Collect pre/post assessment data. Document case studies (with consent). Prove the outcomes.
  5. Layer the retainer — After 3 graduated clients, offer the $300-500/month retainer. This is the recurring revenue tail.

Target Market Size

30,000-60,000 neurodivergent allied health practitioners in Australia (extrapolated from 20% suspected ADHD rate across ~150,000 registered practitioners). Even 0.1% penetration = 30-60 clients.

Revenue Target: Year 1

40 Full Setup clients ($39,600) + 4 Group Cohorts ($19,200) + 15 monthly retainers by Q4 ($27,000 annualised). Total: ~$85,000 in Year 1 from this service line alone.

Software, not willpower.
