Strua
Psychologist-built tools for the moments stress makes coping hard.

Strua is a mental health app offering 60+ evidence-based tools rooted in CBT, DBT, and mindfulness, built by a licensed clinical psychologist. It targets real-life crisis moments with short 2–5 minute exercises for anxiety, stress, and insomnia. The app is privacy-first, avoids gamification, and is designed to complement professional therapy between sessions.
Users select what they're feeling, then follow a short 2–5 minute guided CBT, DBT, or mindfulness exercise tailored to that moment.
Individuals dealing with anxiety, stress, or insomnia, as well as therapists looking to support clients between sessions
