SteadyNote: CBT Journal

Thought diary & Mood tracker

Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.

SteadyNote is a private CBT journal for understanding your thoughts, tracking your mood, and feeling a little steadier — one small reflection at a time. When your mind feels busy, heavy, anxious, or stuck, SteadyNote gives you a calm place to pause and work through what's happening. Write freely, log your mood, or follow a guided CBT thought record to untangle a difficult thought and find a more balanced perspective. Whether your therapist recommended Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) or you're exploring it on your own, SteadyNote is made to be your companion between sessions. It's built around real, evidence-based CBT techniques — but it never feels like homework. Over time, you start to notice the patterns between what happens, what you think, how you feel, and what you do. WHAT YOU CAN DO Guided CBT Thought Records The classic CBT exercise, step by step: describe the situation, capture the automatic thought, rate how you feel, spot the thinking trap, weigh the evidence, and land on a kinder, more balanced thought. Mood Tracking Check in with a simple 1–10 mood log in seconds. Over time, see how your mood shifts and what tends to come before each up and down. Private Journal Entries Write freely when you don't need a full exercise. Your day, your feelings, your therapy notes, or anything on your mind. Spot Your Thinking Traps Recognize the cognitive distortions that catch you most — catastrophizing, all-or-nothing thinking, mind-reading, and "should" statements — explained in plain language. Behavioral Activation Plan a small, meaningful action, predict how it'll feel, do it, then compare what you expected with what actually happened. A gentle way to build momentum when motivation is low. Weekly Reviews Look back gently at your week — your mood, your thought records, your wins, and what was hard — and set a kind intention for the days ahead. Revisit Past Thoughts Return to older thought records and see how strongly you still believe a thought. Watching that belief soften over time is quietly powerful. Therapist-Friendly Export Create a clean PDF summary to bring to a session — with the option to keep your private writing redacted. You choose what to include. PRIVATE BY DESIGN — ALWAYS Your reflections are deeply personal, so we treat them that way. Everything stays on your device and your own iCloud. No ads. No tracking. No accounts.
