Digital Therapeutic Programs

Digital therapeutic programs are structured, research-backed interventions delivered online that help users actively manage symptoms of depression and anxiety in a safe, accessible, and cost-effective way. Unlike simple informational content, these programs guide individuals step by step, providing them with practical tools and exercises that replicate many techniques used in professional therapy.

1. Guided Self-Help Courses

Objective: To empower individuals experiencing mild to moderate depression by offering structured, self-paced programs rooted in evidence-based therapies.

Core Frameworks

• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Helps users identify negative thinking patterns and replace them with healthier thoughts and behaviors.
• Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT): Teaches users to accept difficult emotions, focus on present-moment awareness, and act in line with personal values.
• Behavioral Activation (BA): Encourages re-engagement with meaningful daily activities to break cycles of avoidance and low mood.

Structure of the Courses

Each course would be divided into modules (weekly or bi-weekly), combining learning materials, interactive exercises, and progress tracking.

Example Course Flow:

  • Practice: “Thought Diary” (logging automatic thoughts and reframing them).
