About this app

Improve your life in a way that fits into your life…and in a way you're going to love.

humanStreams blends self-reflection and human coaching to reimagine psychotherapeutic support. In our recent study, people saw clinically significant improvements in just six weeks: 92% felt better, 88% managed stress better, with 60-80% less time in sessions than traditional coaching or therapy. humanStreams empowers YOU to be the agent of your growth.

Here's how it works...think of it like fitness training: guidance and accountability from a coach, with you taking charge of your growth between sessions.

🎯 10-MINUTE WEEKLY COACHING
You'll meet with your coach for just 10 minutes each week via live video. Get professional support, guidance, and reflective exercises tailored to exactly what you need. No more choosing between self-care and everything else on your calendar.

🎧 PROMPTS FROM YOUR COACH
Between sessions, your coach recommends audio prompts from our library of 300+, developed from research into creatively surfacing deep thoughts and feelings. They help you get comfortable revealing your thoughts in a stream-of-consciousness way.

✍️ REFLECT IN YOUR OWN WAY
Like texting yourself, you can type, record your voice, draw, or add photos, whatever feels right for you. Release emotions, free up mental space, and gain the clarity and focus you're looking for. All on your own time.

💬 STAY CONNECTED WITH YOUR COACH
Share your reflections and chat with your coach throughout the week. You can reach out at any point, maintaining momentum and getting support when you need it most.
