WellTrack

WellTrack provides confidential self-guided tools and resources to help manage stress, anxiety and depression. MoodCheck, WellTrack's companion mobile app (Android and Apple), is a mindfulness daily mood tracker, which will ask you to record how you are feeling a couple times a day. It will track your moods and activities over time showing you the trends between low and high moods, a critical component to improving overall mental wellness. WellTrack is great way to integrate mental health into your busy daily life without hassle. Consider it a "FitBit" for mental health.
