Calm Harm App
Emotions can be difficult to control during this pandemic and for some young people lead to self damaging behaviours. Calm Harm is an app to help young people manage their urge to self-harm using strategies from an evidence based approach called Dialectic Behaviour Therapy (DBT). Even if you don’t self-harm, the tasks in the app can also be used to self-soothe when emotions feel out of control. The tasks have been provided by a clinician and can be adapted to work in self-isolation.

Clear Fear App
Clear Fear uses the evidence-based treatment CBT to focus on learning to reduce the physical responses to threat by learning to breathe, relax and be mindful as well as changing thoughts and behaviours and releasing emotions.
