Our Story
OutSession started with something fairly ordinary: therapy happens weekly, and everything else happens daily.
Why does it exist?
OutSession intends to play a tiny role in supporting people into starting, attending and continuing therapy sessions with their professional.

The team
It often surprises people but at the moment its just me working on OutSession outside of a full-time job. I'm a security engineer experienced with working on mission-critical applications as well as more recent creative platforms.

What it draws on
When young people describe what helps in therapy, having different ways to express things comes up often. Writing, drawing, keeping track of what changed. So does what doesn't help: feeling pressured to talk, and feeling like a case rather than a person.
Both shaped this, and both are the reason it stays quiet unless you want it.
