m-What?

m-Path is a free and GDPR compliant platform for practitioners and their clients who wish to extend psychological treatment beyond the therapy room. Flexibly tailored around the specific needs of each therapeutic phase, m-Path is designed to provide practitioners with a unique first-seat insight into the everyday life of their clients. In an assessment phase, m-Path can repeatedly fire short momentary surveys to get a better understanding of the nature, causes and consequences of symptoms or complaints, the daily activities of a client, and his or her therapeutic progress over time. In an intervention stage, m-Path can be used to schedule and implement real-time therapeutic exercises, assignments or reminders, and to evaluate their effectiveness in the moment. Consulting the online dashboard with all information concisely summarized in the form of intuitive timelines, charts and graphs, practitioners are equipped with an excellent feedback tool to evaluate and adjust their therapy goals, and to discuss critical insights with their clients in the actual therapy session.

01 Connect

Once a client has the app installed on his or her mobile phone, he or she can connect to any registered practitioner on m-Path. Practitioners can create an account here.

02 Create

Once connected with a client, the practitioner can create a personalized set of surveys or interventions, or adapt existing templates shared by other practitioners. In agreement with the client, the practitioner decides when questionnaires or interventions should be scheduled.

03 Track

The client receives notifications on the scheduled moments, and is asked to complete a short questionnaire or exercise designed by the practitioner. Responses and compliance are automatically and securely processed and stored into the practitioner’s dashboard.

04 Discuss

Finally, the practitioner inspects and interprets the client’s data via multiple intuitive analysis tools. Interesting patterns and critical insights can be shared with the client in the actual therapy session.

About us

Our mission is to facilitate blended care in psychotherapy. Inspired by the scientist-practitioner approach and the growing endorsement of personalized medicine, it is our aim to create a flexible and intuitive platform that complements traditional therapy sessions with real-time assessments and real-life interventions. In the spirit of evidence-based practices, we hope to create a community of practitioners that can share, adapt, validate and ultimately improve the online assessment and therapeutic exercises for a wide array of psychological problems.
