These apps can be helpful for improving overall emotional wellbeing. Please note that they are not meant as a substitute for psychotherapy with a trained professional but can be a useful addition. I have tried most myself and many clients have found them useful. If you have an app that has helped you, I’d enjoy hearing about it.
