DeePsy:
Mental health is more important than ever, and technology plays a crucial role in supporting it. DeePsy offers an innovative approach to monitoring psychotherapy sessions that can transform how therapists work with clients.
The technology uses questionnaire data regularly completed by clients, as well as automated analysis of speech and emotions. Both sources provide therapists with valuable insights into the therapy process and clients’ emotional state.
This allows for a better understanding of patients’ needs and more effective tailoring of care. DeePsy thus contributes to improving therapeutic outcomes and supporting users on their path toward mental wellbeing.
