What is CBT?

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a practical way to notice thoughts, weigh what supports or challenges them, and try a steadier next step—often with a therapist, sometimes as guided self-help. Clearthought gives you structured prompts and a private record to practice with; it isn’t therapy and doesn’t diagnose.

General background from the American Psychological Association (opens in a new tab).

How you use it

Words carry the story here; screenshots are only where they help you picture the real app.

Pause and capture

Log what happened and what went through your mind—when you need to, without a feed or social layer.

Walk the record

Familiar prompts—evidence, distortions, a balanced alternative—so reflection stays structured, not scattered.

See your own patterns

Charts summarize entries, thinking patterns, and goals—two-week and one-month ranges included. Clearthought Pro adds longer views, comparisons, export, and more when you’re ready.

Two real moments in the app

We keep these sparse so the page stays calm—and so you’re not scrolling through UI that will change with every release.

Charts draw from your library on your device—not from our servers.

Privacy, in short

Journal content isn’t synced to Clearthought’s cloud. Pro features like export and backup only leave your phone when you start them. For the full picture, read the privacy policy.

Scope

Clearthought is a journaling tool for reflection—not a substitute for professional diagnosis or treatment. It can complement care when that fits your plan.
