Empowering people to take control of their mental health through accessible and confidential mental health support. Thrive is a mental health and therapy service, delivered via an app. Our NHS-digitally compliant app* uses smart technology to prevent, detect, manage and treat conditions such as stress, anxiety and depression. Using clinically proven tools and techniques, we enable people to take control of their mental health and have access to support when they need it, where they need it, and for as long as they need it. Therapy Therapy is fully confidential and users can access as many sessions as they need without the limits of traditional services. Our certified therapists are available 8am to 8pm UK time, Monday to Friday, to deliver therapy in line with your clinical needs and get you through to full recovery. Available through video, phone call and text - all at the click of a button! Early Detection Designed for early detection, therapists are alerted when users indicate signs of anxiety and/or depression on symptom assessments. A therapist will proactively reach out to offer support - acting as a safety net, before minor issues become crises. CBT Programme Thrive uses the latest Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) techniques to help people manage specific stressors and retrain unhelpful thoughts. Our comprehensive CBT course provides psychoeducation and engaging learning modules, allowing individuals to better understand the connection between thoughts, behaviours and emotions and be better equipped to navigate mental health difficulties. The more these connections are understood, the better they can be controlled. Build Resilience Monitor your emotions and well-being through our daily checkup session and mood tracker.
