TherapArea Digital Toolbox

There are two main problems we try to solve. One is for therapists and one for patients. There is a lack of comprehensive digital tools for individual or small clinic of therapists. There is a flood of therapists and mentors, especially those whose training is limited to individual courses. That's why it's hard for them to get new customers and they need tools to help them differentiate themselves. Therapists do not have tools available to assist them in providing professional care - a survey we conducted proves this. Most of the respondents who treat meditation indicated that they lack a tool for choosing meditations adapted to patients and a tool for diagnosing patients.

Patients have a different problem. High professional therapists are hard to find and their cost is very high so many patients cannot afford. Approaching lower-level therapists is risky for them so most of these patients use online meditation service without professional supervision. Most of them agree to pay extra for professional supervision and to solve their mental problem with recommended therapists that cost much less than the high professional. It is more relevant in rural areas and virtual meetings are required for these patients.

We are developing a system that contains an application for the therapist and the patient. The application for the therapist is a central tool for the treatment process, gives a feeling of close accompaniment in an almost completely automatic way and includes:

• A software tool that guides him to identify the problems the patient is suffering from, recommends treatment priorities and enables the construction of a treatment plan

• A tool for building a problem-adjusted automatic escort program, and building treatment routes for various problems

• Software that contains a library of treatments and recommends for each problem audio clips from the library that you should use. The software allows the therapist to add his own additions to the audio segment (usually speech) and thus build himself a private library.

• Patient management software that includes registration of treatment events, a treatment diary with the option for the patient to request to schedule or change appointments, automatic summoning of virtual appointments (Zoom), financial charges and collection

• A marketing package to strengthen the digital presence of the therapists and retain existing customers including a website, electronic mail and periodic text messages

The application for the patient includes the activation of meditation practice including the user notification, financial charges, payment option and the possibility of setting and canceling appointments. At a later stage, we will allow all those interested to receive an initial diagnosis and a recommendation for a therapist suitable for their needs.

future aspirations

We plan to collect information from the therapists and patients and based on that build databases of meditations that have received good recommendations for the defined treatments and make them accessible to the public. In addition to building a database of therapists with recommendations from patients and thus becoming a reliable service with worldwide distribution. The database of meditations and articles that will be on the site are planned to be a source of sharing and viral promotion of the contents and bring a large number of users.

For patients - we shall provide lower cost professional therapists services, in clinic and remotely. The patient will know he/she can trust the therapist even if the therapist that uses TherapArea toolbox. This will improve the mental health of large population that cannot afford mental health personal service. For therapist it is a tool to get more patients, improve the treatment and retain the patients for longer periods.
