How it works
Structured CBT, without the blank canvas
CoolThoughts guides you through the ABC model with fast, tap-based steps so you can slow down before you react.
01
Name the trigger
Write or speak what happened in plain language. Stay with the facts.
02
Tap your reaction
Choose from AI-generated chips for body sensations and emotions like tension, anxiety, or overwhelm.
03
Find the hidden thought
Surface the belief underneath, like catastrophizing or fear of rejection.
04
Choose a Cool Thought
Pick a realistic reframe that helps you breathe and think clearly again.
05
Go deeper when needed
Use the optional AI-guided deep dive to explore why the reframe still feels hard to accept.
