About

CBT Mind

Read full description

CBT Mind helps you make sense of difficult moments and think them through more clearly. When something upsets you, your mind often jumps to conclusions faster than you notice. CBT Mind gives you a simple, step-by-step way to slow down, write down what happened, and look at it again with a clearer head. The exercises are based on cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), one of the most widely used approaches for working with everyday stress, worry and low mood. WHAT YOU CAN DO Thought record Note the situation, your thoughts, how strong each emotion was, what you felt in your body and what you did. Seeing it all in one place makes patterns easier to spot. Thought check Look at a thought from several sides: notice common thinking traps, weigh the evidence for and against, and arrive at a more balanced alternative. Prediction and outcome Write down what you expect before an event, then what actually happened. Over time you see how often worry gets it wrong. Exercises Clarify your values and goals, weigh pros and cons, use the Descartes square for decisions, and recall times you coped well. Deeper work Map out a problem or your strengths, and work through the beliefs and rules you hold about yourself. Overview See your entries over time and notice what changes. PRIVATE BY DESIGN • Your entries stay on your device. No account, no server, no tracking, no ads. • Lock the app with Face ID. • Export your journal whenever you want. GENTLE REMINDERS Set a reminder to check in with yourself at a time that suits you. The exercises are built on the worksheets and protocols used by psychologist Svetlana Dorogaya. Available in English and Russian. Made for iPhone Duo too: open it up and the app fills the large inner display. SUBSCRIPTION The first 7 days are free.
