I like this app for the good audios, articles, diary and mood log. I appreciate that the logs are customizable, though I'm still learning how to use the features. There are so many options it's overwhelming at times. Ex: there is a list of healthy activities you can check off. But the things they refer to are not all ready to find, such as listening to a particular audio or reading a certain article in app. This could be solved by adding links where each is mentioned.

This app has helped me so many times in calming me when panic strikes. Its as if Im sitting in the therapists office and she talking me through the entire attack. Wonderful self help tool and you choose if you want music or not, which I prefer not. It also has many different audios you can choose for your liking. I very highly recommend this app.

I've tried countless apps to help with mental health. This woman I can really hear what she's saying and her Mindfulness training is exceptional. She explains it in a way I'd never heard and actually had a moment of fully hearing her. I can only listen to someone depending on how the person sounds and their tone. Brilliant!!! I'd give her 6 stars
