About Tim Thayne
When teens transition home after treatment, everything is at stake — trust, progress, family dynamics, and the long-term impact of the work your program has done.But too often, discharge plans don’t hold. Parents feel unprepared. Teens lose momentum. And what should be a new chapter becomes a relapse into old patterns.That’s why I created Trustyy.Trustyy flips the script by helping teens take ownership of their transition — building a real plan to earn back trust and freedoms before they leave treatment. Our AI coach guides them through an 8-step process rooted in accountability, clarity, and self-leadership.Then we help parents apply trust-building principles at home — while Trustyy carries the load of tracking follow-through, building consistency, and measuring progress.For treatment programs, this means- Higher post-discharge success rates- Parents who are aligned and supported- A scalable/afordable tool that enhances your clinical outcomes without adding to staff burdenWe’re not just solving problems for families — we’re partnering with programs to extend their impact far beyond discharge day.Let’s rebuild trust. Sustain change. And make transition plans work.
