We've worked closely with expert group therapists and mental health organizations to develop personalized communities that promote vulnerable conversations and lasting relationships for students and early-mid career professionals. This is all housed on our mobile application and web app where you can text, video chat, gratitude journal, and attend community events (with automated calendar invites). How it works: - First, we match users into hand-picked groups of 6-8 individuals paired with a Shimmer Guide with similar lived experiences. - You and your group-mates join weekly 1 hr video sessions tailored for your needs by the Shimmer Guide via a curriculum developed with UCSF therapists. - Meet other growth-oriented individuals through community events like wellness workshops, game nights, and movie screenings led by our community team! **** Quotes from our members: - “It’s quickly become something I look forward to all week long. I find myself in Shimmer quite a bit. Watching chats, reading gratitude entries, and reflecting.” - Charlie (they/them) - “Last night I shared a story about a challenge I overcame. It was a breakthrough moment. I realized I HAD to get the stuff inside of me OUT. Then came the words of affirmation from my group mates. I feel so much better now - this is exactly what I need in my life." - Alex (he/him) - "In my group, everyone can relate to what I say, and I can relate to what they're saying. They’re wonderful kind people. I never feel any pressure & am comfortable with them. It's also super inspiring when they talk about their experiences!" - Kendall (she/her) **** **How you can help us:** - ✨ Try us out!
