Mental health in Oakland

Honest conversation about mood, therapy, and getting through, with people who get it, on a schedule you control.

Talking helps, and the hard part is finding people you can talk with, at moments you can handle it. Tell Peachy what support looks like for you and when: the burnout thread surfaces on your Sunday morning check-in, and nothing buzzes your phone unless you asked it to.

Oakland has always run on word of mouth, and Peachy is built for exactly that. Say you're looking in Oakland and posts from people across the town reach you, from Temescal to Fruitvale to the Lake. Say how far you'll travel and the rest of the East Bay comes with it.

Say it in your own words

You describe what you’re looking for the way you’d tell a friend, and your Feed shows the posts from your friends, mutuals and communities that match.

“Surface supportive talk about anxiety and burnout.”

“Show me what actually helped people in therapy.”

“Keep this for mornings when I check in. Don't buzz me.”

How it works

  1. Join in a minute

    Sign up with your phone number. Peachy is a chat app: your people, your group chats and your communities.

  2. Filter it, if you like

    Your Feed starts as everything, newest first. Turn on a paragraph filter, a few plain words like the examples above, place included, and only matching posts show. Turn it off any time.

  3. See what matters to you

    Your Feed shows posts from your friends, mutuals and communities: all of them, or only the ones that match your paragraph. Public posts from everyone else stay under Public, and your private chats are never part of it.
