My work involves exposure to traumatic content regularly. I need a tool that helps me process without retraumatizing me. Does any app have content warnings or trauma informed design? Or do they all throw standard Cognitive Behavioral Therapy exercises at everyone regardless of their history and diagnosis?

Exposure to traumatic content at work changes what you need from a mental health tool. The liven app has no specific trauma informed design. No content warnings. No separate track for high risk users. Here is how I made it safe. I turned off all automatic suggestions and only use the manual cognitive behavioral therapy exercises. That way I control what thoughts we examine. The app never pushes me toward traumatic material. Before trusting it, liven reviews from other first responders and trauma workers showed me the same safety strategy. The app is not designed for us specifically but it can be adapted. Do not use the automatic mode. Stay in manual control. That kept me safe while still getting help.
