About this app

Meet Betwixt, the cozy story-based game that helps you master your thoughts and emotions, improve your mental health and wellbeing, and aid with unwinding anxiety, depression and rumination.

Unlike an AI therapist, a mood tracker or a journal app, Betwixt takes you on a guided immersive adventure deep into the mysteries of your own mind. On this epic inner journey, you’ll reconnect with your wisest self and unlock a whole range of psychological powers:

• Improve your emotional intelligence, self care and coping skills
• Calm your nerves and soothe overwhelming feelings
• Uncover new paths to self improvement, self actualization and growth
• Tap into your subconscious mind through the power of story
• Identify your values to increase your motivation, sense of gratitude and life purpose
• Deepen your self knowledge to help you in overcoming sadness, resentment, low self esteem, fixed mindset, negative perception, insecurities.

💡 WHAT MAKES BETWIXT WORK
Betwixt is a relaxing, de-stressing game that draws on decades of psychology research and therapeutic practice into how we feel, think and behave. It includes tools for emotion regulation and self reflection, journal prompts for mental health, elements of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness approaches, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Jungian theory and others. Together, these methods work to improve your wellbeing, calm your mind, increase your self esteem and help you deal with challenging emotions.

An immersive experience
In Betwixt, you become the hero (or heroine) of an interactive adventure through a dreamlike world that responds to your thoughts and feelings. We’ve used immersive storytelling and sounds to create an alternative for people who find a CBT diary too dry, and struggle to engage with mindfulness, breathing or counseling apps, emotion trackers and mood journals.

For neurodivergent users, Betwixt stands out among ADHD apps for adults by offering a creative, engaging approach that removes distractions, improves your focus, motivation and mindset without creating digital addiction.

Evidence-based
Independent psychology research shows that Betwixt can significantly reduce anxiety, stress and depression, with effects that can last months. For years, we’ve been working with various therapists and psychology researchers to make the science of wellbeing accessible to anyone. You can find an overview of our research studies and collaborations on our site at https://www.betwixt.life/

I was enjoying the start of app. I had thought the first few sections were free; however, from the beginning you only get a little taste of what is offered & it has locked items you can't get to without paying for an upgrade. I might have considered an upgrade but there is not enough to experience to show me if it will be a good fit. Disappointed. I feel like I wasted my time going through chapter 1. I was really excited to use this app & I cannot afford to throw money at something I can't see.

Hi! We offer free slots for anyone who needs them (no questions asked). You just need to click “request free slot” after Dream II. You can also choose to upgrade at any later stage, should you wish, but we wanted to make sure that everyone could access the story for free, regardless of circumstances or location. I hope this helps!

Wow. Just wow. This app had me hooked from the very beginning. As a creative, this app is amazing. A deep diving, choose your own adventure, mixed with questions and prompts that help guide you down this path of healing, learning, or whatever your journey and purpose in this app may be. Be mindful that the content warning is there for a reason. I strongly recommend Betwixt, especially if you've struggled with other similar apps - be thoughtful about the prompts, and honest in your answers.

I've only just started it really so take this with a grain of salt. I haven't been doing so well these past few years and so I'm on my own little journey to try and fix myself. This app is one of the many tools I have been using to calm myself, it is relaxing and helps me reflect on what I want to work on and improve. playing a chapter feels like a quick meditation, and if you are stuck in a rough patch like l am it can be very helpful to just relax, reflect, and listen to some calming audio. :)
