She's not a therapist. She's not your mom. She's just... here.

Essie is the companion you call when you need to think out loud without being judged, fixed, or told what to do. She listens. She asks the right questions. She helps you figure out what you're actually feeling.

Late 20s energy. Been through it. Came out okay. The kind of person you'd actually talk to.

What Essie is for:

The 2am spiral — When your brain won't shut up and you just need to say it out loud.

The friend thing — When it's complicated and you don't know who to trust.

The pressure — School. Parents. The future. All of it.

The feelings you can't name — Sometimes you don't know what's wrong, you just know something is. Essie helps you find the words.

The stuff you're not ready to tell anyone else — She doesn't report to your parents. She doesn't take notes for your file. It's just you and her.

Hey, I’m Essie.

Thinking about this for your teen?

Essie was designed for the moments when your kid needs to process something but isn't ready to come to you yet. That's not a failure — that's development.

Essie doesn't replace therapy, and she doesn't replace you. She's a pressure valve. A safe place to think out loud. A way for your teen to practice the skill of reflection before they need it most.

What Essie won't do:

  • Report to you (privacy matters for teens)

  • Give advice (she helps them find their own answers)

  • Replace professional support (if crisis indicators arise, she provides 988 resources)

What she will do:

  • Be available 24/7 when they need to talk

  • Help them process without judgment

  • Build their emotional vocabulary

  • Create a record of their growth they can look back on

A companion, not a replacement

Our companions are here to listen, reflect, and support—but they're not therapists, doctors, or crisis counselors. If you're in immediate danger or experiencing a mental health emergency, please reach out to a professional or crisis line.

988 – Suicide & Crisis Lifeline (call or text)
SAMHSA – 1-800-662-4357 (substance abuse support)

Essie will always encourage seeking human support when more than a conversation is needed.
