Features & Capabilities

Calm Harm is a free app developed for teen mental health charity stem4 by Clinical Psychologist Dr. Nihara Krause. Built on evidence-based Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) principles, it helps users ride the urge to self-harm by selecting activities across Comfort, Distract, Express Yourself, Release, and Random, plus a mindful breathing technique. The app is based on NHS standards and ORCHA-approved to support safe, private use.

It provides immediate coping strategies to break the cycle of self-harm, builds a safety net of helpful thoughts and behaviors, and offers journaling and signposts to further support. Calm Harm is private and anonymous, requires no user accounts, and data may be reset if you reinstall. It has earned awards including Health Tech Awards, Digital Leaders 100, and Third Sector Awards.

User Reviews

Users overwhelmingly praise Calm Harm as an effective, discreet self-harm coping tool that stays free and easy to use. They appreciate the calming visuals, the ability to track progress and build a long streak, and its applicability to anxiety and other emotions, not just self-harm. The app is widely lauded for being accessible to diverse users, including neurodivergent individuals, and for offering practical, do-able activities. Common requests focus on expanding customization: more activities, breathing patterns, widgets, and a dark mode. Occasional bugs, like freezing, are noted but do not overshadow its overall usefulness.

Occasional freezing/bugs that hinder use (e.g., wave screen gets stuck).
Requests for more customization and features (more activities, custom breathing patterns, widgets, and a dark mode).
