reThinkIt! for School Demo

reThinkIt! for School™, our proven mobile mental health platform, helps make middle and high school students emotionally healthier. Think of it as “advice reimagined” at a student’s fingertips, helping them better process their emotions and make wiser decisions on the fly – at school, at home, or on their own.

Powered by machine learning, reThinkIt! leverages its unique combination of:

• a kid-smart, chatbot-driven conversation,
• a real-time, self-guided Emotional Digital Triage™ Assessment, and
• on-demand, live chat access to licensed mental health therapists and counselors, all intended to improve students’ social-emotional wellbeing by helping them feel heard, supported, and understood.

Both in English and Spanish, reThinkIt! automates the time-intensive parts of the mental health evaluation and triage process that bog down the more important – and essential – high-touch, people parts of nurturing healthy students and cultivating overall school wellness. 

Students provide 6 times more information through reThinkIt! than they share face-to-face with adults, all collected and measured in real-time to reduce caseloads for overworked student health professionals and alert adults to trends in individual and campus wellness. 

For schools with or without their own counselors or therapists, reThinkIt!’s unique flexibility provides forward-thinking administrators a pays-for-itself, cost effective, and easily customizable platform that meets students’ mental health needs no matter where they are emotionally at any given moment. 

A National Science Foundation Phase I grant, awarded in July 2022, funds our most recent research and development to further enhance reThinkIt!’s efficacy with U.S. middle school students.
