How can we help?

Yes, online therapy supported by research is credible and reliable. Available studies have consistently validated its efficacy in treating mental health issues, comparable to face-to-face therapy. This evidence ensures the trustworthiness of online therapy as an effective treatment option.

Online Therapy offers the opportunity to remove existing barriers to treatment such as time and distance but it is vital to explore whether it meets the same criteria of quality and effectiveness as face-to-face therapy.
Recent studies confirm that online therapy effectively reduces psychological distress. Specifically, chat-based interventions offer anonymity, privacy, and a safe space for expressing vulnerability, making it an effective and confidential option for therapy accessibility.

In Digital Mental Health, research benefits patients by pinpointing effective treatment approaches. By analyzing patient outcomes and therapy responses, research identifies tailored strategies for each condition, promoting improved mental health and overall well-being.

At ifeel, research shapes our therapeutic plans through AI and mental health risk analysis. We use evidence-based methods to tailor treatments and digital tools to each patient’s needs, ensuring accuracy and effectiveness of our mental health therapies.
Research drives digital therapy through innovation and the customization of interventions. It promotes continuous improvement based on evidence-based methods, leading to more effective and accessible therapies for individuals worldwide.
Research boosts mental health care access by identifying barriers, testing effectiveness of online therapy and developing innovative solutions. The digital adaptation of scientifically proven therapies can effectively reach underserved populations, offering flexibility and reducing stigma.
