Globally, the prevalence of mental health conditions is on the rise. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), one in four/eight people will experience a mental health issue in a given year. Factors like social media pressures, economic uncertainty, and rapid technological change are contributing to this increase.

Traditional mental health services like in-person therapy can be expensive, have limited availability, and carry a stigma. This creates a significant barrier for many individuals seeking help.

The Digital Age, nuclear family, and pandemics like Covid-19 have exacerbated the mental health crisis, leading to increased anxiety, depression, and isolation. This underscores the need for readily available and accessible support systems.

The urgency for change is clear. We cannot afford to wait. Mental health issues have a significant impact on individuals, families, and society as a whole. They lead to decreased productivity, increased healthcare costs, and a decline in overall quality of life.
