SANVELLO MOBILE APP
Based on cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness meditation, Sanvello provides daily tools to help manage mental health. “Sanvello offers a variety of tools and features, including some techniques that guide us through changing thoughts, beliefs and behaviors that may keep us stuck or prevent us from reaching our goals,” says Gwyneth Esty-Kendall, mental health promotion specialist in the Barnes Center at the Arch. “It is also a great resource if you are looking for ways to reduce stress or be introduced to mindfulness-based practices. While Sanvello is not meant to be a replacement for counseling, it is a valuable tool you can add to your health and wellness toolkit.” All Syracuse University students have access to all of Sanvello’s offerings. Download the app in the Apple App Store or Google Play Store. Use your Syracuse University email address to access the free, premium services.
