Ground Me is the pioneering app that exclusively focuses on Dissociation. Our mission is to enhance mental presence and well-being by providing innovative solutions for those experiencing dissociation.

The Co-Founders and How Ground Me Came to Life

Bilge, the resourceful mental health professional, and Tim, the skilled IT consultant, were aware of the challenges people face in today's world when trying to be more present. Bilge noticed this need through her work with clients and discussions with colleagues. The turning point was a therapy session where a client, despite being physically present with friends, felt emotionally distant, like engaging behind a thin curtain. The client expressed a wish for Bilge to be there, guiding them through grounding exercises to overcome this experience more quickly. Tim and Bilge collaborated to create an app that offers guidance during dissociative moments, not only for ongoing therapy clients but for everyone. Ground Me was born from this idea, aiming to benefit many and facilitate positive life changes.

Addressing the Problem: How We're Solving It

In today's fast-paced world, staying mentally present is more challenging than ever. Together, we aim to bridge the gap by offering a digital haven for individuals on the spectrum of dissociative experiences. Dissociation itself isn't the problem; it's the uncertainty and lack of guidance during these moments. Ground Me provides scientific measures to gauge dissociation levels, offering personalized insights and exercises to regain control. We empower you to manage your presence and take control of your own time.
