The purpose of the study is to determine how Wave’s app and coaching program can help people feel good and live well.
You may qualify for the study if you meet the following criteria.

If you decide to participate, you will be randomly assigned (like the flip of a coin) to one of two groups. Regardless of which group you’re assigned to, you’ll get access to Wave’s app and meet with a Wave coach for 6 sessions over approximately 6 weeks. However, one group gets immediate access to Wave; and the other gets access after 8 weeks.
Periodically during the study period, we will ask you to fill out several brief questionnaires. We estimate that these questionnaires will take 5-15 minutes to complete. All questionnaires are completed virtually.

There is no cost for you to participate in our research study. The coaching sessions you receive with a Wave coach will be free.
