Why Soft Corner is not therapy

Soft Corner can be used for companionship, story, low-stakes reflection, and private conversation. It is not a licensed mental health service and should not be used as one.

What therapy requires

Therapy involves licensed professionals, clinical responsibility, privacy obligations specific to care, assessment, treatment planning, and human accountability. A software-generated reader cannot provide those things.

What Soft Corner can support

  • A place to talk casually or creatively.
  • A companion-like reader for low-stakes conversation.
  • Continuity and memory features where supported.
  • Clear disclosure that you are interacting with AI.

When to seek human help

If you are in danger, thinking about self-harm, or worried you may hurt someone else, contact local emergency services or a crisis line immediately. For diagnosis, treatment, trauma care, or ongoing mental health support, speak with a licensed professional.

FAQ

Can Soft Corner diagnose anxiety or depression?

No. Soft Corner does not diagnose, treat, or provide medical advice. It is AI companion chat with clear safety boundaries.
