About Resonia

Resonia brings a therapy practice's digital life into one place: your website, your scheduling, your sessions, your notes, and the tools you use inside the hour. Nine products (Sites, Scheduling, Connect, Sound, Charts, Portal, Insights, Practice, and Immerse), one login, built to healthcare standards.

We build for therapists in every modality, and for the clients on the other side of the screen.

Our story

When we began our careers more than twenty years ago, a music therapist and a technologist had little reason to work together. Rachael was building a clinical and research practice; Marc was building software. Then therapy moved online, and suddenly our two worlds were sitting in the same room, not always comfortably.

What we saw was a profession asked to do clinical work through tools that were never designed for it. A website host here, a practice management tool there, a video app meant for business meetings, and notes written after hours because the day had no room left for them. None of it talked to each other, and all of it was competing for attention that belonged to clients.

Resonia is our answer: one platform where your website, scheduling, sessions, documentation, and in-session tools live together. For therapists who work with music, movement, drawing, or visuals, the tools are built into the room rather than bolted on. And at every step we ask the same question: does this help the therapy, or is it just more technology? If we cannot answer the first, we do not build it.

Our Mission

To give therapists, in every modality, tools that carry the administrative weight of a practice so the clinical hour stays whole. Good technology in therapy should be barely noticeable: there when reached for, silent otherwise.

Our Vision

Online therapy that loses nothing to distance. A client who cannot travel still gets the drum circle, the shared canvas, the safe room. Music therapists get tools that finally match the depth of their work, and every therapist benefits from what we learn building them.

Our Core Values

Privacy & Security First

HIPAA-compliant infrastructure, AES-256 encryption, and an audit trail on every access to client data. Your clients' trust in you extends to us, and we treat it that way.

Therapist-Centered Design

Built by therapists, for therapists. Every feature is designed to enhance your workflow, not complicate it.

Evidence-Based Approach

Grounded in therapeutic research and clinical best practices across all modalities. Our platform supports proven therapeutic interventions.

Continuous Innovation

Pushing the boundaries with Resonia Immerse for VR therapy, Resonia Insights for AI-powered documentation, and Resonia Sound for interactive music therapy tools.

What We Do

Resonia is a nine-product platform designed for therapists and therapy practices across all modalities. We provide one platform (Sites, Scheduling, Connect, Sound, Charts, Portal, Insights, Practice, and Immerse) that replaces fragmented tools with a single, integrated platform.

Problems We Solve

  • • Fragmented workflows across multiple disconnected tools
  • • Excessive administrative burden
  • • Lack of modality-specific features for specialized interventions
  • • Complex billing and insurance management
  • • Limited options for engaging remote therapy sessions

Who We Serve

  • • Licensed therapists across all modalities
  • • Private practices and group therapy centers
  • • Credentialed Music therapists with advanced specialized tools
  • • Healthcare facilities and mental health clinics
  • • Rehabilitation centers and hospice care providers
  • • Clinical Supervisors

Our platform addresses a critical gap in the healthcare technology market. While generic telehealth platforms exist, therapists need specialized features for their specific modalities. Through Resonia Sound, music therapists get purpose-built instruments, a soundscape builder with 15 ambient layers, and activity timers. Resonia Insights delivers AI session analysis and quick assessments (SRS, ORS, MTES). Resonia Sites generates complete therapy websites in under 60 seconds with AI, and Resonia Immerse brings therapy beyond the screen with browser-based VR environments.

By consolidating Scheduling, Charts, Practice, Connect, and Portal into one HIPAA-compliant platform, we enable therapists across all modalities to spend less time on administrative tasks and more time delivering evidence-based therapy with enhanced tools that improve client outcomes.
