Supporting Men’s Mental Health Through App Technology
With rising suicide rates amongst all ages and little to no research conducted in the UK regarding men’s mental health. My project aims to support men with their mental health issues.
TheraPal is a Mental Health and Wellbeing app catered towards men. The app allows men to easily be able to book a therapy session with a professional. They can also go through the app and write down notes from a doctor’s appointment or a therapy session as well as track details such as mood, current prescriptions, and date of next appointment. This allows the user to keep their health care information in one place and not have to worry about forgetting or losing a note.
The user can also browse the self-care tips page on the app and make goals to accomplish certain things from the list. Therapal offers information on the therapists available as well as an easy to use system to ensure that the user can book an online therapy session that suits their schedule.
