Surfacing

A pause in the moment. A record for therapy.

Surfacing is a private mental health symptom tracker. When something hits, log what happened, how intense it was, what set it off, and what you did about it. Over time your entries show your patterns, and you can share them with your therapist as an encrypted report. No account, no internet connection, and your data stays encrypted on your phone.

LOG IT IN THE MOMENT
• What happened, how intense it was (1-10), feelings and physical symptoms
• What set it off, any numbing behavior, and the coping skill you used, plus whether it helped
• Questions specific to your condition, for PTSD, OCD, anxiety, depression, BFRBs, and more

SEE YOUR PATTERNS
• Intensity over time, when episodes happen, and your most common triggers and feelings
• Which coping skills you rated as helpful
• Segments: save date ranges to keep separate periods apart, like a run of episodes or a time of grief
• Filter by date, intensity, and time of day, or build your own charts

SHARE WITH YOUR THERAPIST
• Export an encrypted, password-protected report that opens in any browser, no app required
