Your Clinical Thinking - Supported by AI
Talk to the Code of conduct with Just Ask NovoNote
An interactive way for Australian psychologists to explore the Psychology Board of Australia's Code of conduct. Ask questions, work through ethical dilemmas, and test your reasoning with JAN (Just Ask NovoNote), NovoPsych's AI assistant.
Introducing JAN
NovoNote AI Scribe introduces Just Ask NovoNote (JAN), an AI-powered assistant engineered for the rigour and ethics of clinical practice.
Unlike standard AI tools (like ChatGPT), JAN allows you to securely and compliantly use your client’s own session notes, transcripts, and psychometrics to inform your next steps.
How do I use this?
On this page, JAN transforms the Code of conduct into an interactive resource, helping you to reason through ethical questions by surfacing what the Code says.
Simply type in your question to get started!
Take JAN Beyond the Preview
What if you could ask JAN about your latest client session, treatment approaches, or to draft a tailored psychoeducational handout?
Inside NovoNote, JAN works securely with your session notes, transcripts, and psychometrics. This page is just a glimpse – the full assistant lives in the app.
The NovoPsych Promise: Trust and Compliance
We know that in clinical care, an AI tool must be a trusted assistant, not a diagnostic replacement.
You are the Expert: JAN is an assistant designed to support your expertise, not outsource your judgement. It provides suggestions, synthesis, and drafts, but the final clinical decision and intervention remain firmly in your hands, as the clinician. We adhere to the highest standards of data security and clinical governance to ensure JAN is a tool you can rely on ethically and professionally.
How This Works
JAN transforms the Code of conduct into an interactive resource, helping you to reason through ethical questions by surfacing what the Code says.
Grounded in the Code
JAN’s responses are grounded in the Psychology Board of Australia's Code of conduct, supporting professional standards on Australian practice.
A reflective partner
JAN helps you consider competing duties, name the relevant standard, and support your reasoning. The clinical and ethical judgement stays with you.
The Source
The Code of conduct
Australian psychologists are bound by the Psychology Board of Australia's Code of conduct (effective 1 December 2025), supported by the Board's professional practice standards.
JAN's job is to help you find and apply what's already in the Code, not to invent rules. JAN does not provide legal or regulatory advice. For support, consult your supervisor, your insurer, AHPRA or your professional body.
Common Dilemmas
Pressure-Test Your Thinking
Talk though the Code. Pick a scenario and JAN will lay out the relevant principles, the tensions to weigh, and where to go in the Code.
Dual relationships & boundaries
Can I accept a friend request from a former client? When does a relationship cross the line? Friend requests, bartering, social overlap in small communities, and former-client relationships.
Confidentiality & disclosure
Can I break confidentiality if a client discloses risk of harm? Explore psychologists' privacy and confidentiality obligations, including risk of harm, requests from family members, and collecting and sharing client information.
Mandatory reporting
What does the Code say about my duty to report? What triggers a duty to report, and what doesn't? Risk to self, risk to others, child protection, and notifications about colleagues.
Working across cultures
How does the Code define culturally safe practice? What are my obligations to ensure effective communication? Culturally responsive practice, informed consent that travels across languages, and working with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander clients.
Records & access requests
What does the Code require for record-keeping, and how does it guide client access to their information? Accuracy, security, continuity or care, and handling access and transfer requests.
Minors, capacity & families
Who consents to therapy for a minor - the child or the parents? Who consents, who receives the report, and navigating disagreements about what should be shared.
