Zero pressure
Chat when you want, ghost when you need to (we won't get offended).
Wellbeing Coaches?
No chatbots here
They're real people who are trained to support teens. They're not therapists, but they're great at listening and helping you feel seen. Plus, they are supported by a team of mental health pros.
No chatbots here
You always get a real person who listens.
Chat about whatever

Are my chats really private?
Yes, what you say stays between you and Sonny. The only time we'd break that privacy is if we're seriously concerned about your safety. If we're really worried about you, we may reach out to a trusted adult to make sure you get support.
Actually private
Your chats stay between you and Sonny. Teachers and parents don't see them.
No secret tab-switching
Sonar is approved by your school so you can chat right from your school laptop. No need to wait until you're home or sneak your phone under the desk.
School-approved
Get support during school hours without breaking rules.
But who's Sonny?
Sonny = team of coaches
"Sonny" is what we call the group of the coaches you chat with. So when you see "Sonny," it's like a name for the whole team. You might not talk to the same coach every time, but every coach is trained to meet you where you are and help you feel seen and supported.
