The story
TheraNest started in 2013 as a niche EHR for mental health solo and small group practices. It was rolled into Therapy Brands, which has since rebranded as Ensora Health — a broader behavioral, mental, and rehab therapy software platform that spans EHR (TheraNest, Fusion), RCM, clearinghouse, e-prescribing, telehealth, and payments. Embedded finance is a real but narrow surface area: card acceptance (Ensora Payments powered by Stripe) and insurance revenue-cycle management, not lending, banking, or payroll.
