Instead of Clare
Clare alternatives
Clare combines conversational self-help with phone calls and WhatsApp messages, offering scheduled or on-demand contact, reflection exercises and coping tools. Its methods draw on self-compassion, stress management, positive psychology, resilience and meditation. Adults can use it on Android, iOS and the web, with a free plan, a seven-day trial and paid access. Clare also presents clinical AI for clinic intake and says its content is curated by psychologists and overseen by advisors. It does not provide traditional psychotherapy, excludes several acute conditions, and recommends professional help for persistent or strong anxiety symptoms.

You may prefer an alternative with a dedicated journal, broader assessment library, community, regional language support or direct specialist handoffs. The products below also differ in voice access, platform coverage, crisis routing, human involvement and privacy controls. Compare those trade-offs with Clare’s call-and-message format, its adult-only requirement and its pricing. Check whether you need structured CBT work, mood and sleep tracking, group interaction, encrypted journaling or support that remains strictly self-guided.
