Wow, what a ride this has been.

Rackley Nolan, Jay Meistrich and I started Bravely from a place close to my heart — my lifelong battle with mental health. While it's been hard work getting better — I'd say that my therapist worked just as hard to break through the stigma, impart her expertise, direct me to the science and to instil in me the trust that I could get better.

We first imagined Bravely as a simple app: something to help people educate themselves on mental health in a friendly, accessible way. But the more folks we talked to, the clearer it became: there weren’t enough tools for the amazing people, like my therapist, who show up everyday to help others.

I strongly believe that great design and smart tech can be a force for good, so long as it’s used ethically and carefully. Designing products in this space requires a deep commitment to those values, and it’s something we never take for granted.

Bravely Connect is all about making the business side of therapy easier. But we also made sure it's safe, ethical and private for everyone. We’ve interviewed over 300 therapists and experts worldwide to make this happen. And we're not stopping here. We want Bravely Connect to be the tool to optimise your practice, so you can just focus on the work you do best.

Give it a go! We hope you like it.

Thank you for being here with us. With your support and feedback, I hope we can keep making Bravely Connect something to make your job just a little easier, and your clients to become as grateful and as happy as I've learned to be.
