A little clarity
before you begin.

Switchbacks is a digital, AI-powered platform for people experiencing separation or divorce. It is not telehealth. It offers a place to talk things through, guided topics, and curated books, podcasts, videos, articles and practical resources related to what you share.

No. Switchbacks is not therapy, psychotherapy, psychiatric care, mental health treatment or a substitute for working with a licensed professional. It can help you reflect and explore general well-being practices, but it does not diagnose or treat conditions.

No. Switchbacks is a digital, AI-powered platform, not telehealth. It does not offer therapy, appointments or video visits with a therapist, physician or other licensed professional, and the conversations in Sessions are AI-powered. For professional care, contact a qualified professional directly.

No. Switchbacks can help you explore topics and questions relevant to divorce, but it is not a law firm and cannot give advice tailored to your legal rights, deadlines, custody arrangements, property or court proceedings. Consult a licensed attorney for legal advice specific to your circumstances.

No. Switchbacks does not accept or bill health insurance. It is a self-pay digital membership, not an insurance-covered clinical or telehealth service. Current membership options are shown during signup.

As you share more about what you're experiencing, Switchbacks can suggest books, podcasts, videos, articles and practical guides that relate to those topics. These are recommendations to explore, not endorsements of every viewpoint or substitutes for professional guidance.

You can use Switchbacks whether you have children or not, and whether you're considering separation, in the middle of divorce or rebuilding afterward. The topics you explore can reflect your own situation and priorities.

Yes. The AI-powered experience is available at any time. That does not mean a human professional is monitoring your messages or available to respond. Switchbacks is not an emergency or crisis response service.

Do not rely on Switchbacks for emergency help. If you are in immediate danger, call 911 in the United States. For mental health crisis support in the US, call or text 988. If you're outside the US, contact your local emergency or crisis service.
