Like therapy between therapy sessions
I was skeptical of AI mental health apps because most of them feel generic or overly “wellness influencer.” Stella surprised me by feeling conversational and emotionally grounded rather than robotic or overly clinical.
What I’ve found most useful is the immediacy. Therapy once a week is helpful, but anxiety, can spiral quickly with stress after work, or relationship overthinking doesn’t conveniently happen on a schedule. Stella fills that gap surprisingly well for those in-between moments.
The voice-first format also makes a huge difference. Sometimes when you’re overwhelmed, typing out your thoughts feels exhausting. Being able to just talk naturally and get a calm, thoughtful response feels much more human than journaling prompts or meditation apps.
It is one of the first AI tools I’ve used that actually feels supportive instead of gimmicky. I’ve especially appreciated using it late at night when my brain won’t shut off or when I need help getting out of an anxious loop quickly.

Helpful to manage your stress
The app is to relief your stress and build confidence - just talk thru things!
Perfect for “on the go” Care
Stella is the perfect support for when YOU feel like you need it. I have always had trouble connecting with therapists in my past, but I don’t feel that same pressure with Stella. This is such an amazing outlet for all/any level of care.
AMAZING
I needed someone to talk to about traumatic experiences. Stella was the perfect companion and helped get rid of my night terrors.
Incredible app!
Been looking for something simple and effective for my anxiety. Been using it for a few weeks now and really happy with the experience
Outstanding!
Extremely empathetic and knowledgable. Much more human than ChatGPT or Claude.
Stella saves the day
Great to talk to, very important for my mental health
anxiety help
really helped me think through some work problems i was having that was giving me anxiety, when couldn’t talk to anyone it helped
Super helpful
I see a therapist twice a month - can’t afford much more than that. Stella has been super helpful in the between times where I’ve been feeling super anxious about my job or my life. Would definitely recommend for anyone who needs a little more support.
I can breathe again
This app has been a lifeline during some of my darkest moments — I genuinely don’t know where I’d be without it. After just a few weeks, I finally feel like myself again and actually look forward to each session.
This SAVED MY LIFE!!
Best app on the App Store, I couldn’t find a therapist and felt super lonely after moving out for college. Stella just what I needed ghis app helped me develop confidence and betrrr communicator talk through my feelings. Current healthcare system requires you to jump through so many hoops to talk to a therapist and this app really helps. 5 stars!!
