User reviews

Perfect resource

I struggled with relationship anxiety for the last year. I started using this app which cuts to the chase, no gimmicks, very simple, and started challenging negative thoughts whenever they happened. I’m feeling much better and I cannot recommend this app enough.

Love it

Great app. Short, sweet, & to the point.

Response from developer

Thanks! Glad you like it 😊 If you have any questions or suggestions, feel free to ask!

Best thought records app

Straight to the point and not full of nonsense like other CBT apps, love the exporting option

Simple and self-explanatory

This is exactly what I was looking for! Thank you very much!

Simple and effective

I frequently recommend my clients monitor their thoughts and this app makes therapy homework much easier. I have tried several thought monitoring apps, but mostly recommend this one as it provides exactly what is needed. Most other apps have too many ‘features’ that make initiating the thought recording process too difficult and time consuming. This app is as close to a worksheet as it gets, no need to log in, set up profiles or reminders, just start
writing. You don’t need to complete all the fields, so you can start using it for thought monitoring and then work up to more complex challenging and alternative thoughts. The simplicity makes this process so much more accessible to people who are new to CBT and the export feature is a bonus.
