XenZone: Digitising mental health services for young people

Informações:

Synopsis

Most young people now expect to find services online, including support for their emotional wellbeing. While face to face counselling is a great way to address mental health issues, many young people are unable to access such services or may sometimes prefer to anonymously talk about their problems. Kooth is a digital platform for young people to on-demand get mental health support that's developed by XenZone, a pioneer of online counselling services in the UK that’s been improving access to mental health services for children, young people and adults over the last 20 years. In this episode of HealthRedesigned, we chat with Elaine Bousfield, Founder and Chair of XenZone. She shares how XenZone works with local authorities to provide a blended approach, delivering mental health services that are more holistic and accessible.
