What is Woebot and how does it support mental health?
Woebot is a digital mental health companion offering in-the-moment mental health support through an app on a phone or tablet.

Woebot provides user-directed, interactive conversations and tools that encourage healthy lifestyle choices which can aid in managing symptoms of anxiety and depression. It supports users by helping develop skills for emotional regulation, mood monitoring, and management through features such as mood tracking, progress reflection, gratitude journaling, and mindfulness practice.
