Climb is a wellness app geared towards individuals experiencing depression and anxiety. The app aims to help users improve their physical and mental health through various strategies including mindfulness, behavioral activation, and cognitive behavioral approaches. Upon downloading the app, users are asked a series of questions to measure areas like motivation, addiction, vulnerability to mental and physical health issues, and what the user would like to learn about most. Based on the user’s responses, the app provides personalized recommendations for lessons, meditations, challenges, and surveys. Other app features include habit and goal trackers, journal entries, and psychoeducational materials and videos. Additionally, users have the option to schedule a session with a certified therapist, get in touch with allies and lifestyle coaches, and anonymously connect with other users through discussion forums. The app is free to download, but users must pay a fee of $9.99/month, $59.99/year, or $199/lifetime to gain full access to features.
