Always Heard

Safety and boundaries

Always Heard is emotional support, not therapy or emergency care.

This page sets the boundary clearly: Always Heard can give you a private place to start, reflect, and be heard. It is not a substitute for professional care or crisis support.

What Always Heard is

A private place for emotional support, companionship, reflection, and being heard.

What Always Heard is not

Therapy, diagnosis, treatment, medical advice, coaching, legal advice, or emergency care.

What Aria is

Aria is AI. It can help you start, reflect, and stay with what you are feeling, but it is not a clinician or a person.

What listeners do

Human listeners are trained to listen with care. They do not diagnose, prescribe, or tell you what to do.

Boundaries

Use Always Heard for listening, reflection, and company.

Always Heard is for moments when you want to say what is on your mind without needing to make it polished, clinical, or solvable. Aria and human listeners can stay with you, reflect what they hear, and help you feel less alone with the moment.

Always Heard should not be used to make medical, mental health, legal, financial, or safety decisions. If you need care from a licensed professional, contact a qualified professional.

Always Heard is intended for adults 18 and older.
