I have done some apps. A free one for anxiety and Mahana, for IBS, that is free for the first (very useful) segment. There is a GI Psychology group in Burke, VA that only does telehealth appoints. They seem quite popular and of course you could live anywhere and be a client. If you try anything of this ilk you will learn things that are useful. For me, my IBS is in my gut (what I eat) and my head. I have to work on both.

My GI doctor from UCLA has started me on a very low dose of Nortriptyline. It is used in a low dose to treat visceral hypersensitivity. Has anyone taken this medicine?

Thanks for sharing these. I wasn’t familiar with either and those sound like great resources.

I like how you put it, that your IBS is in your gut and your head 🙂

I’ve used Nerva (the app), which does have a free trial, but they’ve since changed to a subscription model that costs quite a bit. Insight Timer (meditation app) has some things labeled as gut directed hypnotherapy but I’m not sure how closely they are to the clinical models. But it’s free.
