Therapy & mindfulness
Let thewatersettle.
Stillwater pairs you with a licensed therapist and gives you five-minute practices for the hours in between, so the calm you find in a session is still there on a Tuesday afternoon.
01 — Before
Some weeks the water never settles.
- Thoughts that run laps at 3 a.m.
- Work that follows you home.
- Grief that arrives on a Tuesday.
- The low hum of always being on.
None of this means you are broken. It means you have been carrying a lot, for a long time, without anywhere to put it down.
02 — How the calm comes back
Not all at once. One step, then the next.
02 · Therapists
Matched on what you are carrying.
Answer four short questions and we suggest three therapists who work with exactly that. Switch whenever you like, no explanation needed.
Four questions · three suggestions03 · Practice
Five minutes, between the hours.
Breathing, body scans and short guided practices, each under ten minutes. Your therapist can suggest one for the week ahead.
Offline · no streaks04 · Journal
Write it down. Keep it yours.
A gentle prompt in the evening. Entries stay private unless you choose to share one before a session.
Encrypted · share per entry03 — Between sessions
A small library for the in-between.
Short, plain-spoken practices for the moments that actually happen: the car park, the commute, the minute before the difficult call.
Breath4 min
Box breath
Four counts in, hold, out, hold. A steady shape for a racing chest.
Transition6 min
Soft landing
For the doorway between work and home, so the day stays at the door.
Anxiety10 min
Worry window
Give the worry a time and a place, then close the window on purpose.
Body9 min
Body scan
Shoulders, jaw, hands. Notice where the day went and let it go there.
Before5 min
Hard conversation
Slow the breath, name what you need, walk in with one sentence ready.
Sleep12 min
Wind-down
Lights low, screen away. A voice that gets slower as you do.
04 — Night
Nights that end in sleep.
- A wind-down that starts when you choose, not when an app decides.
- Sleep stories read slowly, with no music stings and no cliffhangers.
- A three-minute "back to sleep" practice for the 3 a.m. wake-up.
- No streaks, no guilt notifications. Ever.
What people bring, and what changes
Small signs, noticed early.
"I stopped rehearsing arguments in the shower. That was the first sign something had shifted."
Jonas, night-shift nurse · illustrative
"The breathing thing sounds silly until you are sitting in a car park five minutes before a meeting."

Questions
Asked, often.
Is Stillwater therapy or a meditation app?
Both, deliberately. Therapy happens in live sessions with a licensed therapist; the practices and journal are there for the days in between. You can use the practices without ever booking a session.
What if I am in crisis?
Stillwater is not an emergency service. If you are in danger, call your local emergency number (112 across the EU). The app shows your local crisis line on every screen.
How are therapists chosen?
We check every licence and qualification, hold a clinical interview, and ask each therapist to stay in monthly supervision. Most of the people who apply do not join.
Can I use my insurance?
We are not billed to insurers directly, but you receive an itemised invoice after every session. Many insurers and employer programmes reimburse it; check your own policy.
How do I cancel?
Two taps in Settings. Nothing to call, no exit survey. Your data export arrives by email the same day.
