Clinical Practice Solutions

Intake that understands therapeutic fit.

Behavioral Intake Matching is IPA's live clinical-practice product — an AI-assisted matching engine and admin console that routes clients to the right clinician using the same assessment discipline we apply in coaching and org work: structured capture, scored fit dimensions, and routing rules a psychologist would recognize.

The Problem

Keyword intake fails therapeutic fit.

Most behavioral health intake matches on insurance, modality, and availability. That produces reassignment churn, early dropout, and clinicians spending the first sessions recovering from a bad fit instead of doing the work.

Behavioral Intake Matching uses clinical assessment logic at intake scale — capturing what matters in how a client presents, scoring fit against provider profiles, and routing accordingly. AI makes that operable at volume; the frameworks keep it from becoming keyword matching with a chatbot skin.

Same Method, Different Lane

One of four surfaces — not a separate company.

Work-Trait Narrative Coaching serves executives and teams. Core Work Focus and Authority & Lineage serve organizational assessment. Behavioral Intake Matching serves clinical practices. All follow the same spine: structured capture → scored dimensions → intervention rules → re-assessment.

Why a clinical-practice product?

High-volume intake is where bad matching is most expensive — reassignment churn, early dropout, clinicians recovering from misfit in session one. This is where IPA's assessment methodology first had to run at software scale.

How it connects to IO work

The same psychologist-built logic that routes a client to the right therapist also informs how we assess executives, teams, and organizations. Clinical practice is the proving ground; organizational consulting is the direction of travel.

Platform Components

Two tools, one integrated system.

Built for behavioral health groups and agencies — matching engine plus the admin console that runs it day to day.

Matching Engine

Behavioral client–provider matching

Intake captures clinically meaningful behavioral data and routes each client to the provider most likely to be a strong fit — first time, not after a failed assignment.

Admin Console

Practice operations & workflow

The administrative layer that makes matching operational at scale — intake oversight, assignment management, provider profiles, and the workflow intelligence practice owners actually need to run the system day to day.

Validated Frameworks

Psychology-grounded, not AI guesswork

The matching logic is built on established behavioral and psychodynamic frameworks — including attachment-based models — not generic LLM prompts or keyword taxonomies dressed up as intelligence.

Deployment

Licensed & white-label ready

Available for licensing to individual practices, group practices, and agencies. White-label deployment for organizations that want the capability under their own brand.
