Technology for the use of mental health
- Submission status
- Closed
- Submission deadline
Traditional mental health interventions such as face-to-face therapy can be difficult to access for a variety of reasons, but especially for people under financial pressure, with mobility issues or busy schedules. Over recent years, technology has opened up new and more accessible opportunities for mental health support and treatment. Devices such as smartphones, tablets, and computers have provided novel ways for individuals to receive support and monitor progress. Various applications and platforms now enable individuals to track their moods, receive reminders to take medication, engage in healthy behaviours, as well as find and virtually interact with clinicians or therapists. This Collection explores new and innovative ways to use technology for the support and treatment of mental health. Furthermore, this Collection welcomes research based on data collected through mental health applications.
