Our approach

Progress over resolution

You already know most conflicts don't get “solved.” A lot of them are perpetual, the same tension in new clothes, and the healthy work isn't forcing a finish line. It's keeping the conversation moving.

Gripely is built for that motion: name the issue, hear each other out, agree on one small thing to try, then revisit. Your clients don't need every gripe closed. They need to keep moving forward together, between sessions.

Your privacy & security

Gripely is a reflection and communication tool for the space between sessions, not a clinical record system. Please don't store protected health information (PHI) here.

  • Encrypted in transit (TLS) and at rest
  • Private by default, enforced at the database level (row-level security)
  • Secure sign-in via Clerk, a dedicated auth provider
  • We never sell your data

Gripely is not HIPAA compliant today. If that changes, we'll say so clearly.

Frequently asked questions

Is Gripely a good conflict resolution tool for therapists?

Yes. Gripely gives your clients a structured, private space to raise issues, propose solutions, and reach documented agreements between sessions, so the conflict-resolution skills you teach in session get practiced at home. It works for couples, families, co-parents, roommates, and group therapy.

Can I give Gripely to clients as homework between sessions?

That is exactly what it is built for. Many therapists assign a Gripely space as between-session homework: clients log gripes, practice "I" statements and active listening, propose and vote on solutions, and you can review the documented progress before the next session.

Is Gripely Professional really free for therapists?

Yes. Approved therapists in our Founding Therapist program get full Gripely Professional access free, for life. No credit card, no trial clock, no auto-charge.

Which therapists qualify for free Professional access?

Licensed mental health professionals: therapists, counselors, psychologists, marriage and family therapists (LMFTs), clinical social workers (LCSWs), and similar credentialed practitioners. Share your credentials in the application and we review each one.

How do I get access after applying?

Once we approve your application, create a Gripely account using the same email you applied with and Professional unlocks automatically. If you already have an account, we upgrade it for you.

How is my clients’ data kept private?

Conversations live in private spaces your clients control, with anonymous mode available for sensitive issues. Gripely is built around structured, documented, consent-based resolution. See our Privacy Policy for the full details.

Will I be charged later?

No. Founding therapist access does not convert to paid. It is our way of supporting practitioners while we grow.
