Making Time for Presence and Creativity | Nate Peereboom on The Trauma Therapist | JotPsych

Thanks for listening.

If you got here from a clip of me talking to Guy MacPherson, this is the full conversation. We talked about why documentation is quietly eating the craft of care, why I don’t think AI belongs between a clinician and a patient, and what we’re building at JotPsych to give clinicians back the minutes that matter.

It’s 26 minutes. Worth it.

What I keep coming back to

Themes from the episode — and from every other room I walk into where clinicians are trying to do real work inside software built to punish them.

“The best way to build trust with a clinician is to demonstrate that you understand their day. Not tell them you do — show them.”

— Nate Peereboom

“Some people look and say, hey, I’m billing, this is great. I’m just submitting claims. And then they get audited and 30% of their revenue gets clawed back. And it’s really, really tragic.”

— Nate Peereboom

“We’re not trying to be an EHR with AI bolted on. We’re building the thing EHR companies will try to copy in five years and can’t — because they have twenty years of technical debt and we have twenty months.”

— Nate Peereboom
