Designing for therapists means prioritizing what matters in the next few minutes, not just what looks good on a dashboard.

I explored two layout directions for a mental health practice management web app that helps psychologists manage sessions, patients, documentation, tasks, and follow-ups.

Both concepts use the same core widgets, but with different positioning and visual hierarchy. The goal was to make daily priorities easier to scan and act on.

Which option feels more intuitive - A or B? 🤔

Option A feels a bit more natural for a therapist's workflow. Placing the daily schedule and key priorities right at the top makes it much easier to scan between back-to-back sessions without unnecessary friction. Great focus on practical UX over just aesthetics.

An empty dashboard is the first screen a new account sees.

What changes between the before and after: 1. The headline says what the dashboard is for 2. The sub-headline says what is possible 3. The button names the system to connect

Clear writing means faster time to value

naming the system right on the CTA makes the first step obvious. solid shift
