Aemote is an emotional wellbeing app built on the Change Triangle — a psychological model from AEDP (Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy) therapy. It helps you map and understand your defence mechanisms, inhibitory emotions (like anxiety, shame, and guilt), and the core emotions underneath them (like grief, anger, and joy).

The Change Triangle is a three-vertex psychological model used in AEDP therapy. Each vertex holds a different category of emotional experience:

Defences — the patterns we use to avoid feeling (distraction, numbing, humour, intellectualising)

Inhibitory emotions — emotions that stop us from accessing our core feelings (anxiety, shame, guilt)

Core emotions — our authentic emotional experiences (grief, anger, joy, disgust, fear, excitement)

Aemote is an independent app built on this model. We are not affiliated with the AEDP Institute.

Aemote is a blend of "emote" (to express emotion) and "AEDP" — the therapy framework the app is built on. The name reflects both the act of emotional expression and the evidence-based model behind the tools.

No. Aemote is a self-awareness and tracking tool, not a substitute for professional mental health care. It works best as a companion to therapy — helping you stay engaged with your emotional work between sessions. If you're working with a therapist who uses the AEDP model, Aemote can be especially valuable.

Progress looks different for everyone, but common signs include: spending more time in authentic emotional states, relying less on defensive responses, feeling better equipped to process inhibitory emotions like anxiety or shame, and noticing patterns in your emotional life that weren't visible before.

The Stats screen in the app tracks your check-in frequency and emotional trends over 7, 30, and 90 days — so you can see your progress over time.
