When two worlds collide; why the mental health and tech industries are a perfect foil for each other

Every day, we are more involved in the “virtual” world. Coffee shops have turned into not just Wi-Fi echo chambers but “work from home” cafes. Even waiting at the bus stop is no longer a time to reflect upon your surroundings; it’s time to check social media. This has led to an increased sense of loneliness among people and even stigmas associated with technology, mental health and addiction.

The world is shifting, and so are the terms in which we view mental health. Adverse childhood experiences, mental illness, and suicide have plagued the human race since time immemorial. However, our perception of the same is continually undergoing a shift, thanks to advancements in technology.

Mental Health and Tech industries are progressively meeting each other head-on at a lightning-fast pace. Some of the world’s leading tech organizations are developing high-impact AI-driven solutions that promise to transform the mental healthcare industry.

The role of tech industries in mental health care

On the one hand, the tech industry is booming and expanding rapidly, so it’s hard to keep up with all the new products and services developed over the past few years. On the other hand, mental health issues are more prevalent than ever; whether it’s anxiety, depression or something more serious like bipolar disorder or schizophrenia, people from all walks of life struggle with their mental health daily. And yet, despite this seeming contradiction, there is no better time than now to be working in both fields.

The mental health and tech industries have a lot to gain from each other. The rise of digital platforms has led to an increase in people seeking help for their mental health problems, with many turning to apps like Headspace and Calm for support. But there is still a long way to go before we can fully embrace technology to improve our mental health.

We’re moving towards a world where you don’t need to think about your mental health in terms of “I have depression” or “I have anxiety” or whatever it might be. Instead, you think about your mind as something that needs care. It’s like taking care of your body — if you neglect it, it will deteriorate over time.

Technologies that bridge gaps by identifying people who need further support are gaining traction today. This is turning the trend by offering effective psychometric testing, information and last-mile connectivity for mental health and counselling services.

The most impactful mental healthcare technologies today are the subtle ones. That includes scheduling software that reminds an upcoming appointment with a text message or email, live Zoom consultations, and online mental health coaching programs.

How can you get the best out of it?

With the help of technology, you can connect with the right mental health coach at your pace and schedule. At Quality Mind, you can get coached by the best-qualified mind mentors.

You can interact with your mental health coach via live Zoom sessions once a week till the end of your coaching program. You can even sign up for a 1:1 or group coaching session with your personal development coach to seek help for your concerns.

Getting mental health support is easier than ever with Quality Mind Mobile App. The app is built with a private dashboard that assists mental health coaches in monitoring the clients’ daily status. It also helps to coach them in real-time when needed.

Geoff Fairhurst is an outstanding mentor who initiated and guided us on our journey through “thought shopping” and how to effectively change the neuro pathways using affirmations. I was in a hole, full of procrastination and depression. He has changed my habits and given me a new lease on life. 60 is the new 40😎

The app is fantastic, it is a brilliant way to record how I am feeling, whether it be good bad or indifferent. It's design is made support your development everyday but like a warm coat in winter you will need to use it to get the benefit. It takes a few minutes a day to use it effectively. I use bubble popping to create dreams along with solving challenges. I thought shop to identify what is moving me towards my goals or causing blockages. I will also create tasks that need completing as well. I'll journal and when I do I focus on the feeling, the sounds, the smells. I am a better person when I use it. 10 thought shops 1 bubble 1 journal 1 meditation 10 to 15 minutes investment a day its a no brainer for me. 1 - If you are still reading download the app. 2 - contact a Mind Mentor mine is Leigh Stafford. It's an extremely powerful app.

This program has been life changing for our family. To be able to give ourselves and our children a concrete way to stop going down the rabbit holes of over thinking or worrying about the past and future, to work through meltdowns with the kids…there really are no words to describe what that has done for us. The meditations have helped me find my feet and remain centred, and there isn’t a night the kids don’t ask for one to fall asleep to. For the first time in a long time, the future looks bright and I’m excited to see what lies ahead with the rest of this program. Thank you for helping us thrive!
