Safe Space

Safe Space is an AI companion that intervenes at the loneliness stage before it becomes a mental health crisis, helping college students recognize they’re struggling, process their feelings, and prepare for therapy through 24/7 accessible therapeutic conversations trained on CBT/DBT principles. The platform bridges the gap between “I feel alone” and “I need help” by providing anonymous, judgment-free support and exportable summaries that prepare students for professional counseling appointments. Safe Space is led by Tim Laux (CAS’28).
