The Happy Tracker tracks your happiness and other emotions over time.
Individuals can use the Happy Tracker to work with their counselor or simply to take some control over their sense of happiness and wellbeing.
The Happy Tracker was originally designed with therapy and counseling in mind. We had observed the difficulty that patients can have with accurately recalling how they felt over a period time when discussing with their health professional or therapist. How you feel at the time of your session can misrepresent your how you have felt since your last visit. As well the clinical environment can impact what your report to your counselor. This app was developed to quickly and easily to track emotions and share this with your health professional. The information can be reviewed together on the app or by emailing in advance.
Health professionals can use the Happy Tracker to manage and track a number of clients. Health Professionals can use the app to track presenting issues within an institution or organization in order to track emerging issue trends. This can then be used to put in educational programs in place. Clients who use the Happy Tracker can be loaded up through an easy email upload feature.
