Journal Buddy is an innovative mental well-being application that seamlessly integrates cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) principles with cutting-edge technology to offer users a comprehensive and personalized journey toward improved mental health.

The Challenge

Mental health disorders pose a significant global burden, affecting millions annually. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) has demonstrated effectiveness in mitigating symptoms across various conditions. However, challenges such as limited accessibility, high costs, and social stigma impede widespread adoption.

The project seeks to harness AI's analytical capabilities to deliver personalized CBT interventions, monitor real-time user progress, and engage individuals actively in their mental health journey. Additionally, Journal Buddy provides a crisis line feature, offering immediate support for users facing emergencies or crises. This ensures that users have access to assistance whenever they need it, further enhancing the app's ability to support mental well-being.
