为什么信任本指南

I have run Heard inside a working private practice for over a year and tested every feature covered here.

本教程源自实际操作经验，而非厂商截图。

会计 concepts barely shift in a decade, but the tools around them change every year.

Heard is 会计 software built for one job: keeping therapy practices financially organized.

Most therapists only ever touch the monthly reports.

That is a disappointing use of a platform that can handle far more of the work.

This article shows you how to use every major feature.

Every section breaks the steps down with screenshots and practical tips.

This How to use Heard tutorial walks through each part of the platform, from your first login to the settings that separate casual users from confident ones.

听到

Stop losing evenings to spreadsheets. Heard pairs 簿记, tax filing, and payroll with accountants who work only with therapists. Your books stay current and your questions get real answers.

Heard入门指南

Before any feature makes sense, finish this one-time setup.

大约需要三分钟。

These steps ensure your first month closes without surprises.

Here is what the first month actually felt like:

现在让我们一步一步来。

第一步：创建您的帐户

Go to the Heard website and click Get Started.

Enter your email, your state, and your practice type.

The sign up flow asks whether you are a sole proprietor, an LLC, or already an S corp.

✓ 检查点： 你的 收件箱 should hold a confirmation message within a minute.

Step 2: Connect Your Business Bank Account

Link the account your practice actually uses for deposits and expenses.

Heard reads transactions only. It cannot move your money.

连接您的 商业 credit card in the same screen if you carry one.

✓ 检查点： Transactions from the last 90 days should appear in your dashboard.

Step 3: Finish Onboarding With Your Team

You get matched with a bookkeeper and book a short onboarding call.

Bring last year’s tax return and your current entity paperwork.

Set your fiscal preferences in settings before the first close.

How to Use Heard Bookkeeping Tool

簿记 lets you hand off your monthly books to 会计师 who only work with therapists.

Most therapists lose hours every month sorting charges they barely remember. Clean books are the foundation for every other financial decision you make.

以下是使用步骤详解。

Step 1: Open the Transactions Tab

Click Transactions in the left sidebar.

Every synced charge and deposit lands here first.

Step 2: Review the Categories Your Team Assigned

Your bookkeeper sorts various types of practice expenses into the right categories.

You only confirm the ones flagged as unclear.

这就是它的样子：

✓ 检查点： Every transaction shows a category and no red flags remain.

Step 3: Close the Month

Click Confirm once the flagged items are cleared.

Your profit and loss report updates the same day.

如何使用赫德税

税收 lets you file federal and state returns without hiring a separate tax preparer.

Tax season is where a disorganized practice gets expensive. Keeping filing inside the same platform prevents the handoff mistakes that create real concerns later.

以下是使用步骤详解。

Step 1: Open the Taxes Dashboard

Select Taxes from the sidebar to see your current year status.

Quarterly estimate due dates sit at the top.

第二步：上传您的文件

Drop in 1099s, prior returns, and any personal income 数据.

Missing documents show as a checklist, so nothing gets lost.

这就是它的样子：

✓ 检查点： Your document checklist reads complete with no missing items.

Step 3: Approve and File

Your preparer drafts the return and sends it for review.

You approve inside the dashboard, and they file federal and state.

如何使用Heard Payroll

工资单 lets you pay yourself a reasonable salary on a schedule that runs itself.

Paying yourself properly matters more than most new practice owners expect. Payroll turns it into a background process you never have to think about.

以下是使用步骤详解。

Step 1: Turn On Payroll in Settings

Payroll unlocks once your S corp election is active.

Sole proprietors take owner draws instead, which is normal.

Step 2: Set Your Reasonable Salary

Enter the salary figure your accountant recommends.

The tool calculates withholding and the employer portion for you.

这就是它的样子：

✓ 检查点： A pending pay run appears with the correct net amount.

Step 3: Run the First Cycle

Pick a pay schedule and click Run Payroll.

Filings and deposits happen automatically after that.

如何使用赫德S型公司选举

S型公司选举 lets you see whether an S corp would actually save you money before you file.

S corp status is oversold online. This feature is real problem solving with your actual numbers, not general advice recycled from a forum.

以下是使用步骤详解。

Step 1: Open the S Corp Calculator

Find it under Tax Planning in your dashboard.

It pulls your real revenue instead of asking you to guess.

Step 2: Compare the Two Scenarios

The screen shows self-employment tax against S corp tax side by side.

Payroll and filing costs are already subtracted from the savings.

这就是它的样子：

✓ 检查点： You can see a clear break even number in dollars.

Step 3: Request the Election

Click Request Election if the numbers favor the switch.

Your team prepares Form 2553 and tracks the deadline.

如何使用Heard支持和社区

支持与社区 lets you ask a person your money questions instead of guessing from an article.

Software cannot answer every question about your practice. Sometimes you need a person who will listen to your situation, and Heard treats its customers as practice owners before software users.

以下是使用步骤详解。

Step 1: Message Your Team Directly

Use the chat panel in the bottom corner of any screen.

Replies land in one business day during normal weeks.

All communication stays inside the platform, so answers never get buried in email.

Step 2: Search the Resource Library

Watch the short training videos or read a guide before you write a message.

For example, the deduction resources cover home office rules that trip up telehealth providers.

这就是它的样子：

✓ 检查点： Your message shows a read receipt from your bookkeeper.

Step 3: Join the Therapist Community

Request access to the private member group from your settings page.

Other practice owners answer questions the help docs skip.

听到了专业技巧和快捷方式

After a year of steady use, these are the habits that saved me the most time.

None of these techniques are hidden, but almost nobody uses them effectively.

Small habits improve your monthly close more than any single shortcut.

键盘快捷键

大多数人错过的隐藏功能

• Transaction rules: Teach the tool to categorize recurring charges once, and it repeats the logic forever.
• Report exports: Send a clean profit and loss to a lender or landlord in two clicks.
• Owner draw tracking: Separate personal transfers from real business spending so your margins stay accurate.
• Deadline reminders: Turn on email alerts in settings and never miss a quarterly estimate again.

避免常见错误

Mistake #1: Mixing personal and practice spending

Mistake #2: Treating the dashboard as read only

Mistake #3: Electing S corp status too 早期的

听到故障排除

Problem: Bank connection keeps dropping

原因： Your bank rotates security tokens, and multi factor prompts expire quietly in the background.

使固定： Reconnect from Settings, then approve the prompt on your phone within sixty seconds.

Problem: Transactions are missing from a past month

原因： The initial sync usually pulls a limited history window rather than your full account.

使固定： Export a CSV from your bank and send it to your team through chat. They import it manually.

Problem: Your S corp election was not accepted

原因： Form 2553 has strict deadlines, and late filings need relief language attached.

使固定： Contact your team immediately. Late election relief is often available, but only if you move quickly.

📌 笔记： If none of these fix your issue, Heard support responds through the in-app chat. Raise billing or data concerns there too.

听到的是什么？

听到 is accounting technology built for therapists, counselors, and other mental health professionals in private practice.

Think of it as an accounting firm and a bookkeeping app sharing one login.

Therapists work inside healthcare, where patient care comes first and paperwork comes last.

The platform serves a narrow community on purpose.

General tools serve many industries at once, so they rarely understand how a therapy practice earns and spends.

Heard shapes its services around the way a small clinical organization actually runs.

它包含以下主要特点：

• 簿记： Your transactions get categorized every month by a real bookkeeper, not a bot.
• 税收： Quarterly estimates and annual filing are handled inside the same account.
• 工资单： Run payroll for yourself or a small clinical team without a second app.
• S型公司选举： Heard models your numbers and tells you if the switch is worth it.
• 支持与社区： Message your team, book calls, and compare notes with other therapists.

The main benefit is simple. Your financial admin stops competing with your clinical hours.

That trade is a positive one for nearly every practice owner I have spoken with.

价格

Here is what Heard costs in 2026:

免费试用： No free tier. Heard offers a free consultation call before you commit.

退款保证： Plans are billed annually or monthly, and you can cancel before renewal.

💰 性价比最高： Essential — it covers the work most solo therapists actually need, and you can move up when payroll enters the picture.

Compare that against a local accountant plus separate software before you decide it is expensive.

Both plans are supported by the same accounting team, so you invest in fewer admin hours rather than more features.

听证会与替代方案

How does Heard compare? Here is the competitive landscape:

快速精选：

• 综合最佳： Heard — nothing else pairs therapy-specific accountants with working software.
• 最佳预算： Wave Accounting — free books for a practice still finding its footing.
• 最适合初学者： Heard — the onboarding call removes most of the guesswork.
• Best for clinical admin: SimplePractice — notes, scheduling, and client billing in one place.

🎯 听过其他选择

正在寻找 Heard 的替代人选？以下是一些最佳选择：

• 🚀 QuickBooks Online： The default general accounting platform. Deep reporting and integrations, but you supply the therapy context yourself.
• 🎯 SimplePractice： Built for clinical practice management. Handles notes, scheduling, and billing, with lighter bookkeeping than Heard.
• 💼 Xero： Clean interface and strong bank feeds. Popular with accountants across many industries, not therapy specifically.
• 🧠 GreenOak会计事务所： Human-first accounting firm serving private practice owners. More custom, more expensive, less software.
• 💰 波浪式会计： Free invoicing and basic books. A reasonable starting point when your practice is very small.

⚔️ 听到的比较

Here is how Heard stacks up against each competitor:

• Heard 对阵 Xero： Xero is cheaper software. Heard is cheaper than Xero plus a separate accountant and tax preparer.
• Heard诉GreenOak会计事务所： GreenOak gives more personal attention. Heard gives a predictable monthly price and a real dashboard.
