Umi - Mental Health App

  • Hannah Woodall

With six-month-long waiting lists, impersonal phone calls, and sometimes judgemental looks, the mental health services currently offered in the UK leave much to be desired and do not serve those who need them the most. Umi is an app created to be the solution to this. Targetted at young adults in education, Umi uses cognitive behavioral therapy teachings to allow you to take control of your own mental health journey. Whether you choose to undertake this privately, linked to your university counseling services to allow open and honest discussion, or linked with your friend's accounts to encourage motivation and sharing, Umi feels tailor-made to each and every user.
