Dr. Nicholas Gehle, Psy.D.
I built Strua because I saw my clients struggling between sessions. They'd learn powerful techniques in therapy, then forget them when they needed them most—at 3am, in a meeting, during a panic attack. Strua puts those tools in your pocket, backed by the same research I use in clinical practice.
A trusted companion for clinical practice.
Therapists recommend Strua because it's built on the same evidence-based foundations they use in session.
Bridge the Gap
Empower your clients to practice CBT, DBT, and mindfulness skills in their own environment, between sessions.
Privacy by Design
No joint accounts or data sharing between you and your clients. Personal reflection content is designed to stay on their device.
Zero Friction
No clinician-specific referral code or client linkage, and no complicated setup. Just say 'try Strua — go to strua.app and do Box Breathing.' That's it.
Clinical Integrity
Every tool is designed by a licensed clinical psychologist and cites its peer-reviewed research origins.
