Research direction

Start with prisma/schema.prisma:222-263 and trace the existing note flow from pages/patient/patientProfile/[id].vue through components/patient/TherapySection.vue, components/therapy/ReportModal.vue, and composables/therapy/useTherapyNoteForm.ts. Check the session entry points named in the issue, then verify that session-created notes retain their session, history identifies it, and profile-created notes remain optional.

Description

area: patient enhancement P1: high

Part of #285 (Group C — notes correctness).

Problem

The user story says "therapists take notes for those sessions," but a TherapyNote is tied only to a patientId — there is no link to a Session/appointment. Notes are a flat per-patient log distinguished only by createdAt and manually-entered per-field dates.

Evidence

  • prisma/schema.prisma:222-263 — TherapyNote has patientId + relation to Patient; no Session/SessionPatient relation.
  • composables/therapy/useTherapyNoteForm.ts — the POST payload has patientId and free-text date fields but no session identifier; grep for sessionId in the therapy components/composables/notes API finds nothing.
  • Entry point is the patient profile page, not a session: pages/patient/patientProfile/[id].vue → components/patient/TherapySection.vue → components/therapy/ReportModal.vue (the note editor).

Impact

P1. Per-session semantics aren't modeled; two sessions the same day are indistinguishable except by hand-typed dates. Attribution of a note to the encounter it documents is lost.

Proposed approach

  • Add a nullable sessionId FK to TherapyNote referencing Session (migration).
  • Add a note entry point from a session (e.g. from SessionDetailModal / the therapist's calendar) that pre-binds sessionId and patient.
  • Keep the profile-page history but group/label notes by session where present.

Acceptance criteria

  • A note can be created in the context of a specific session and stores its sessionId.
  • The notes history shows which session a note belongs to.
  • Existing patient-level note creation still works (session optional).
