Body-first calming
Grounding, breathing, sensory reset, TIPP-style cooling, and movement tools give users something concrete to do when thinking harder is not helping.
Evidence-informed, not overclaimed
How Trana helps, in plain language.
Trana brings together common self-support patterns: grounding, breathing, journaling, CBT-informed reflection, behavioural tiny steps, and crisis signposting. It is designed to help people get through moments and notice patterns, not to make clinical promises.
Claims we do not make
Trana does not claim to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any medical or mental health condition.
Trana does not claim that a tool will calm every person within a fixed time.
Trana does not replace clinical assessment, therapy, medication, local crisis services, or emergency care.
Trana's in-app patterns are for personal reflection, not a medical record or clinical risk score.
Product foundations
Support skills you can actually use.
The goal is practical relief and clearer self-awareness: a next breath, a safer contact, a small action, a journal entry, or a pattern worth noticing.
CBT-informed self-help
Thought labelling, worry time, control circles, tiny next steps, and journaling are framed as practical self-help skills, not therapy.
Mood and stress patterns
Check-ins, optional notes, weekly signals, journal themes, and tool use help users notice what may be shaping their mood and body stress.
Crisis-aware boundaries
The app keeps emergency limits explicit and routes users toward real crisis resources when an app is not enough.
What Trana looks at inside the app.
Insights are built from the information a user chooses to give Trana. They are for reflection and support planning, not diagnosis.
Mood and body-stress check-ins on a simple scale.
Optional factors such as sleep, work, social pressure, body sensations, or other context.
Tool use, journal themes, talks, streaks, and whether users return to a support path.
